    Hope he's ok!

    thankyou all so much for your support and concern!

    I ended up ringing the WCH the other night, they basically said that it sounds like avirus and as long as he is not getting dehydrated and the panadol is keeping his fever down, just to keep an eye on him, they did say that if he didnt improve within 24hrs to take him in.

    well, on sat night I managed to give myself food poisoning (from eating something dodgy out the fridge, cos I was too damn tired to be bothered cooking!) so I was up all night to jacob and to go to the loo was not a good night!
    then on sunday we had close family round for a small Bday celebration for jacob, he slept through most of it (I wish I could have!) I gave him another supp at around 1pm, and thank the stars his temp never rose again.
    we all were in bed and asleep by 9pm last night, woke a few times for a feed, then we all got up around 8am this morning, Jacob was chatting like he hasnt ever before and trying to jump off the bed! His temp is still down I feel like a huuuuge weight has been lifted off my shoulders! I am still worried, but fingers crossed he keeps improving, he is already 100% on what he was like yesterday!
    Sat night I bawled my eyes out to Dp about how much weight he had lost, dp was telling me not to be silly, but then last night we were looking at the photos on my camera from his little party and then at some other pics from about 2 weeks ago, ther is an obvious difference....so distressing, but I guess its a good thing that he had quite a bit of chubb to begin with.
    He is back eating his fruit this morning too

    Don't worry about his weight for now - he will gain it back and then some very quickly now that he's well again. When my eldest was only 7 months old he lost nearly a kilo in a week from a gastro/vomiting bug that lasted for 8 days but he gained all of that and nearly another half kilo within 2 weeks of being back on his normal diet again. A lot of the loss is just fluid too.
