So very sick!
This is horrible!
The weekend has been disgusting... Saturday afternoon, DD got sick. She hasn't eaten an actual meal since breakfast on Saturday morning. Throwing up, upset stomach, not wanting to eat anything... Took her to the doctor on Sunday night when her diaper rash got real bad, and turns out that, once again, she has another yeast infection... This is #3 for her, and she's not even 15 months She's on a perscription again for that, and it does seem to be clearing up since Sunday. Other than that, weekend went alright. Monday was fine - went to aunt and uncle's house for aunt's birthday, had supper there. Once again, DD refused to eat a bite of anything. 3am last night, DS gets up and he's now turned into the mighty Puke-a-Saurus. ALLL night, from 3am on. I didn't really bother getting up after 3am with him... Gave him a bucket to use if he needed, and I figured he was old enough to call if he wanted or needed help, and each time I heard him coughing, getting sick or getting up, I instantly woke up. 7am this morning, my mom calls as usual (she takes DS down the road to catch the school bus in the mornings, since she drives right by to go to work at the time the bus comes anyways, saves me from packing the baby up to go to an inconveniently placed school bus stop) I told her he's probably not going to school, let her know he's been up sick all night. I was then told that the bus is now stopping at the stop I had requested a change for. I decided to get up, toss some clothes on and go out to meet the bus driver to make sure she knew where we were, and let her know the kid is sick. Just as I'm getting ready to toss some sort of clothes on to go out, N practically flies over me, out of the bed, runs to the bathroom and gets sick himself. Meanwhile, I feel like garbage from basically being up most of the night, and I feel somewhat sick myself. Off I go to meet the bus, then after I take the short walk to the store. Come home, kids are still sleeping, I crawl back into bed. N leaves for work, I called the school to report DS's not going to be in school today, and I try and sleep a bit. We all skipped out on breakfast, I let everyone sleep. DS was groaning and moaning and crying that his stomach hurt, DD is fine, other than her infection and throwing up issues. I manage to sleep until just before noon when, magically, both kids decide to get up. No one wants anything to eat. I try and keep both kids pumped with water and juices, DS had some crackers. Shortly after I get up, I start getting sick. I can't hold down any food or liquids... N and DS did have some soup this evening, then DD and I had some. She had a bowl of soup and some watered down Gatorade. I had a glass of Gatorade, right after a bowl of soup, and instantly felt sick. I didn't bother trying to make it upstairs to the washroom, so ran out the back door to get sick out in the cold yard. I really do think I brought up more than I took in a few moments ago I doubt there's much I can do - everyone's sick, there's probably nothing I can really take... The pharmacist suggested soups and fluids - she said Gatorade was perfect. I've tried drinking it straight, even tried watering it down. It still comes up... At this point, how on earth do I stay somewhat hydrated? I've heard that being dehydrated can start labor early. At this point, I'm not quite ready - just under 2 weeks to go on the calendar, but I won't have a baby car seat until next Monday or Tuesday. This baby has been making me extremely uncomfortable and sick to my stomach... Hurts real bad every time it moves, for some reason. Any ideas on this? I know I'm probably stuck with some kind of bug, I have been trying to sleep when the kids do (luckily today, both slept most of the day anyways, and for fairly longer stretches of time) I feel like I've been hit by a train! Any ideas? Or am I stuck just sucking it up and living with it...? |

Any ideas? Or am I stuck just sucking it up and living with it...? Hugs. Try teeny tiny sips of water. Literally just a few drops at a time, like ice chips, and let them melt in your mouth and slide down your throat without having to swallow. Repeat every few minutes. Even if you throw it back up, some is staying down, I promise. Some is getting into you, and will help keep you hydrated. Just keep taking tiny sips or melting ice chips in your mouth. I'm so sorry your entire family is out sick with this.

I agree with Jamie and just have tiny sips of water.
Don't even bother with food right now as unless you can keep it down for a little while it will just make you more dehydrated if you keep vomiting all the time. Good luck -- Pip My girls : DD1 Jasmine - 5 weeks early - 21 March 02 - Still as small as a peanut but as smart as a whip!

She's gone from trying to feed her food to just liquids until she stops throwing everything up You know, they say that there is no such thing as a 24 hour stomach flu. That it's really food poisoning. Is it possible you and your family ate something a few days ago which could have caused this? I mean, the fact that you are all incredibly sick, and miraculously better in a day points towards something you've eaten. Just a thought. Either which way, I'm glad things are looking better at your house! -- Jamie Earth Angels: Taylor Marlys, 1/3/03 Addison Grace, 9/30/04 Check out the family! -- www.MyFamily.com, User ID: Clarkguest1, Password: Guest Become a member for free - go to Add Member to set up your own User ID and Password |
