Where do I begin with the little guy?!? He's been sick since the end of February. With respiratory stuff, gets better and never goes away! Then gets worse...grrr!!! We went to the doctor for the second course of antibiotic, and three days later he begins with vomiting and diarrhea. On Saturday (after 4 days of vomiting, and only getting worse) we finally decided to take him to the ER. We had been able to keep him as hydrated and well fed as possible, but Saturday was just awful. We spent the night in the ER, hooked up to an IV, yeah! They sent us home expecting him to feel and be better.
Sunday morning (after only 3 hours of sleep) he woke up hungry! I gave him just a little bit of formula, and it instantly came back up. Well back to pedialyte! I decided maybe a bath would make him feel better. Oh no...got sick twice in the bathtub. Had more diarrhea while I was getting him dressed...guess we'll be headed to Children's this time.
After some persuasion to the Dr...they decided to keep us. It was frustrating because no on seemed all that concerned that he was loosing everything from both ends. Mike and I were extremely frustrated with their attitude to it. Two nights in the hospital, and they sent us home...it's a virus, it'll go away. We had to just trust that they knew what they were talking about, and hope he would be okay.
Luckily we are getting better. He's back to crawling all over and getting into everything. And for some crazy reason, he's trying to eat us out of house and home!!! He isn't sleeping through the night anymore, and is starting to get congested again...yeah. When does it stop?!?!?!?
