Sicky Sick.

i think it was yesterday that i was saying
that finn has never been sick. well, i
jinxed it.
he took a wicked long nap and when i got
him up he felt really warm, i took his
temp and it was almost 101*. i thought
maybe it was because his room had been
warm and he was wearing heavy jammies, so
i stripped him and put him in his
highchair for some food. he was eating and
i looked at him and he looked funny so i
jokingly said "are you about to throw up
on your tray?" and he immediately did! it
was soooo sad, he was so upset and
couldn't stop crying. he took a nice long
bath and seemed happy so i hoped that was
it. nope, he just threw up again and cried
and cried.
poor guy...

i just feel so bad for him. he won't even
drink water or juice so i don't know if
he'll take the pedialyte. nick's going to
run out and get some anyway.
i just put a movie on for him and i'm
hoping he'll just sit quietly and watch
it.
this is so messy!

I'm so sorry. Ava's finally feeling
better. Don't force him to eat if he's
not hungry. The dr. told me and Ava's dr.
to me for her that the emptier your belly
is the faster you'll recover. If it last
more than a day, you may need to buy some
soy formula for him to be sure he's
getting some nutrients. The soy is easier
on their stomachs. Just trying to give
you some hints b/c we just got through
this.
I hope he gets better soon. Also, the
best time for pedialyte is right after he
throws up. My dr. said that it's really
not even necessary unless they had
diarrhea.
Good luck!
It's weird that this happened, b/c in the
shower this morning I was actually
thinking about how lucky you are that he's
never been sick.

he must be feeling better. he sat and
watched nemo for like 10 minutes and now
he's running around screaming. i wish he'd
just lay down and relax!
i'm going to offer him some toast for
dinner. he's only had breakfast today, he
was just starting lunch when he got sick
the first time.
i hope it's not contagious! i don't want
to be sick. of course the only water he'll
drink is from my water bottle.

Ava did the same thing. She'd puke and run
around playing. After 3 days of it it
started to get to her and she became weak.
I hope it's just a 24 hour thing, not a
5-7 day thing that our whole community's
going through right now.

Well I hope he does feel better. Toast
would be good, or crackers or popsicles
and such. Don't give him juice, pedialyte
is the best for him if he is throwing up
or having diarrhea. When brayden had a
stomach bug the doctor told me to only
give him pedialyte for 24 hours (no
formula or juice) and then the dry stuff
like toast. Then if he had stopped
throwing up by then you could slowly work
the other drinks in again.

thanks for the well wishes. i think he's
feeling better today. i was afraid we'd
have a rough night but he slept great and
i didn't hear from him from 7-7. we're
taking it easy today, i'm only giving him
plain food, no fruit, no real meals. he
had a dry waffle for breakfast and now
he's having a graham cracker. oh, and no
milk today either. he seems ok but he
doesn't look good, he's got purple bags
under his eyes.
unfortunately it seems to have hit me.
i've thrown up once and i just crashed for
2 hours while he watched tv in his
playpen. i feel like crap.
