Stomach Flu

Like everyone else (I think : ), Johnathan got the Stomach flu in the middle of October. He was soooooo sick. He had it for 4 days, MAJOR vomiting and diarrhea. He threw up everything we gave him. So we started restricting food and milk until he kept pedialyte and water down. Poor boy. We did so much laundry because he'd throw up all over his crib and himself, we'd change the sheets, then he'd do it again in an hour. We almost had to take him to the Children's Hospital ER to get IV hydration. But he started hydrating okay by mouth, so thank goodness we never had to go. We did take him to the doctor one day though. He was so sad when he was sick. He was like a limp wet noodle that wouldn't do anything and could barely stand. He got an extra dosing of cartoons that weekend. We almost had to cancel my birthday date, but he got better just in time.
