I put her down at 8 and at 8:19 I heard
her making a weird choking noise then
moaning. I went in and saw that she puked
ALL over in her crib. Thank God my mom
was able to come bathe her while I changed
the sheets and bumper pad. Thank God I
have extra sheets and bumper pad.
I'm washing the vomit ones right now in
case it happens again. My poor baby girl.
I thought it was over with so I let her
have green beans, fruit snacks, peas, and
mac and cheese. I even gave her some
milk. I guess tomorrow we're back to
formula and toast again. I shouldn't have
given her that food. I should have given
her belly a day to rest. I feel guilty.
She's sleeping again, but she went down
crying her eyes out. I guess throwing up
scared her. I left her b/c I knew she'd
fall asleep easier by herself and sure
enough she stopped crying after 30
seconds.
It breaks my heart. I want her to get
better.

I feel so guilty. The dr. didn't say how
long to keep her on formula and no solids,
so I figured since she didn't throw up
yesterday evening today would be a good
day to start back to normal. I should
have waited. I feel terrible.

immune system, he's never been sick.

Don't feel guilty! You didn't know. And
she kept it down all day.
Poor thing, make sure you give her extra
hugs tomorrow from us.

aww, poor Ava.
Don't feel guilty, you just wanted to see
her eat again....I know I'd want to see my
baby eat again after being sick.
Especially if she ate it, she must have
been feeling alright. I hope she feels
better soon!

I just wanted her to eat. Seeing her
hungry yesterday KILLED me! I wasn't
doing it 2 days in a row and I can't say
that tomorrow I'll starve her again. I
just can't do it again. I'll give her
toast and a few ounces of formula every
few hours to be sure she's getting
nutrients. Thank goodness the dr gave me
a few cans. I'm suprised Ava liked it
again. She hadn't had it in a while.
Bridget, you are SOOO lucky!!!!
Ava's had a cold a few times, but this is
her first time with the virus. We've yet
to have diarrhea (knock on wood!). I
honestly rather this than a cold. I hate
pumping her nose and hearing her not be
able to breathe. The only thing that
sucks about vomit is the whole house
smells like cheese after she pukes.
Blah!
Oh, and on a lighter note. My mom taught
her how to do this really dramatic BLAH!
sound. So when you ask her what it sounds
like when she throws up, she goes,
"BLAAAAAH!!!!" and bends over. It's
sooooo funny!

Good. She slept great, but today she's
cranky. She's hungry, so I gave her some
cheerios, bananas, and some grits. She
really wants her formula, but I can't give
her more than 2 oz every 3 hours. She's
just so cranky.
Thanks for asking.
Get better soon Ava
