Connor is sick…

September 20th, 2010 by Donnie

Connor vomited Saturday morning, but we thought it was because he drank a lot of milk on an empty stomach.  He ate regularly and has seemed normal since then.  Sunday evening at Papa’s birthday party, he vomited again — now we figured something was up.  Again, he seemed to be playing like normal.

We got home tonight, topped Jacob off with formula and we all settled down for a nice night of sleep.  I figured with Jacob taking 4 ozs we could possibly get 5 hours of sleep before he was looking for another feeding.  So, everyone was tucked in a sleeping by 9:30pm tonight.

11:30pm — no good night sleep for us!  We hear Connor coughing and crying in his room.  We take him into the bathroom in order to help and to see what is wrong.  He needed to vomited.  A few minutes a later hit vomited a little bit.

11:45pm — Daddy heads to Wal-Mart for Ginger Ale, Jello, Gatorade, and Wal-Mart’s brand of pedialyte.  I know Connor doesn’t like pedialyte, so I went with Wal-Mart’s brand.  I saw some postings online saying it “tasted” better and that kids were taking that more readily instead of the Pedialtye brand.  I gave it the taste test when I got home and it really is not bad at all (orange flavor).

midnight — Connor is sleeping in our bed…3 towels in the bed with us…two covering the pillow and mattress and one available for a “throw up rag”.

Hope you feel better soon, Connor!
