Hi All, welcome castle!
Well just an update on Nixon. He was 10months old on Saturday and all going well until he woke about 2am in vomit. since then he has continued to be sick all week, first was vomitting and going off all food, then started the diahorea. I have been struggling to give him even half the amount of fluids he usually has and he became a little dehydrated. After a week of not eating nor getting any better i took him to hosp on Friday. just monitored him but basically said there isnt much they can do. he lost about 700g in the last week.
anyway today he started eating small amounts again but no he has terrible nappy rash. i have been out all day and dh said he did lots of poos but was fine. but i got home about 5pm and since then ive changed about 5 nappies. it is to the point when he wees or poos he absolutley screams in pain.i bathed him with some pinetarsal in the water and stopping using wipes to wipe him. I am caking the cream on like concrete, tried to give him some nappy free time, until he pooed everywhere. it brings tears to my eyes seeing how red he is and how much it is hurting him. i just wish he could stop pooing so it can get better.

I hope all the kiddies are well and dont get what Nixon had has, i thought it was a 24hr bug but its gone on for 7days so far.
