On the road to recovery!!

WOW...i must say the past couple days have been pure misery around the Lindsey's!!! Wednesday morning, miss Ava woke up at 5:30AM throwing up!!! About an hour later, here comes the diarrhea with a 100.2 temperature...i called our Dr...of course hr wanted to see her...turns out she had a stomach bug that is going around...yeah lucky me!!! So he tells me to keep plenty of fluids in her, and keep her temp down, within 24 to 48 hours the throwing up should stop but she would probably have diarrhea for a couple days...by that afternoon she has it coming from both ends!!! Very long night to say the least!! Thursday morning...guess who wakes up with it....MOMMY!!!! I couldn't keep anything down what so ever...not even ginger ale, crackers, water, nothing...it was horrible!! BUT we are both on the road to recovery finally...Ava hasn't really ate anything since Wednesday...she has actually drank a couple small bottles today which is a lot of progress since wednesday!!! We had to cancel her b-day party we were going to have this weekend...so that was kinda sad...but there is always another day for that...this stomach bug was a DISASTER around here, i would hate to pass the germ along!!! Please keep Ava and I in your prayers...i really hope we get back to normal very soon!!!

YUCK!!! I completely feel your pain, a sick baby is TERRIBLE. I'm glad you are starting to feel better. The only thing I can offer up is that eventually she will eat. Olivia didn't eat anything but formula for about 7 days when she was sick, and that was minimal. Then all of a sudden her appetite came back, now she's eating everything:) Feel better soon!!!
