March came in like a lion for Emmy...let's hope April comes in like a lamb! March was not a good month for her. She fought the ear infection for a while. Her sleeping has gotten much better, but yesterday morning she woke up at 6:30 a.m. throwing up. We had our first experience with Emmy getting the flu. I must say, it was awful! Our hearts just ache watching her go through that. She wasn't quite sure what was going on. We took her in to the pediatrician at 8:00 just to be sure it was the flu and not something else. She also has a rash on her bottom. I feel so bad for her. The doctor said she has the flu, but that her ear infection has cleared up. Her doctor said that we could take her off of the Omnicef medication since her infection is gone.
Yesterday, Emmy started with vomiting and then by 10:00 a.m. it changed to the worst diapers I have ever seen. I was gagging right along with her. I gave her some Pedialyte yesterday and today. We have LOTS of laundry to tackle due to her major blowouts!!! Wow...the joys of parenthood. We kept her out of daycare yesterday and today. Hopefully, it will pass soon! I hope we don't get it.
Her mood in the afternoon was pretty good. By late afternoon she was eating solids and keeping them down pretty good. She was playing with her toys, smiling & laughing, but continued to have nasty diapers. We are making sure that she's getting plenty of fluids.
