Omg i just realised, we were in the emergency tuesday night not wednesday.. hmm being friday maybe i should go to the GP. He seems ok atm and has had a couple of chips for lunch (its the only thing i could get him to eat) and its staying down so far....
i might go over to the chemist and ask about the panadol.. im sure tonight wont be so easy, seems to go down hill very quickly at night.....
I know its not important, but my first week of being back at work full time and ive had 3 days off... thankgod my boss has 2 little kids .... !
Buzzie - I had Loren on panadol and nuerofen for 4 days straight around the clock. Doctor told me to because she was having convulsions. If Ash has been throwing up for that many days I would take him to the doctor just incase he is dehydrated too.
Lauren: your job is important too.. You don't want to feel like you are letting anyone down.. glad you have an understanding boss though
If ou are worried about fluids you could try this.. It is what we did to gt them to have some glucose as well as water.. just made up jelly and syringed it into them and told them it was medicine
Keep an eye on his wet nappies.. If the wee is yellow or he isn't peeing much then he is starting to show signs of dehydration
Lauren - We have rung the Maternal Child help line a few times when we have been worried about things but not wanting to rush straight to the doctors, they have always been really helpful and reassuring. You can always ring them for an opinion (they might say take hime to the docs) but it is good to have that instant opinion when you are worried. Big hugs to Ash.
thanks everyone, i went to the chemist and they said give him hydralite to drink so he doesnt get dehydrated, but he doesnt like it. he hasnt had any boobie since waking this morning which is the first, but he has been drinking some water.
Im soo angry i just went to pay ABC and i have to pay for pubilc holidays (half price if you give them 2 weeks notice u are having a holiday too, even tho its a compulsary holiday and they close the centre!!) and half price the days hes sick even with a sick certificate!! WAT A JOKE!!! GRHHHHHHH
Im seriously contemplating putting him in a personal careers home or something.....
Buzzie- I hope Ash is better sooner rather than later poor wee man. And i hear you on the daycare on pub hols it really sucks but as far as i know they are all the same even FDC (well it was when DD1 used to go)
Well as most of you have read on FB i got my appretniceship and start tues PT working 2days and tafe one day. But i cant start tafe til June so working 3 days til then. One of the days is a sat so DH will have the girls but they will have to go to DC tues and Thurs *sob*. Sorry slack post have to be at work in 40mins (my caring job) and DH isnt home yet and it takes 1/2 hr to get there. ARGH
Finally i have finished going through our entire bellybuddies posts and copy and paste all of mine to make into a journal... 55 pages long!!
so funny reading it all!!! Now i have 55 pages of my posts to edit!.. my back is killing me from sitting here so long, been doing it for 3 days now when ever ash lets me..
i had soo many emotions reading, at one point i got so clucky again then i was reading all the complaining and pains and thought ok maybe not lol, then i was so nervous at the end it was like reading about another woman and getting excited for her.. hahah funny.
well ash has been alseep for a couple hours, so needed it the poor chook. missed his Gp apt tho was hoping to get another sick certificate for ABC, bastards! lol
Im starving.. off to find some dinner!!
Lauren,I agree with Bek,you can keep the Panadol going around the clock for about 4 days only,other wise you must consult your Doctor. That Gastrolite from the chemist tastes discusting,taste some,hun, it`s like salty water, our Doctor recommended going & buying 4 or 5 bottles of( Poweraide sports drinks )does exactly the same job replenishes the ELECTROLYES back into the body to stop the dehydration. I hope little Ash is feeling better very soon,and you manage some rest & sleep,hun.
Hoody- great job on scoreing your trainee ship,hun,it`s fantasic new!
Nic-I usually sit kieren in the high chair and make him sit there,but some times he cry`s and then makes himself sick,so i let him out,he`s not interested in eating much,I?m sure it`s the teeth.Not much fun ay!
Hope you get some rest,hun....It`s nice that you can have some Me!time though,you deffinately deserve it.
Hi- Bek & Alicia- hope your both well & the family.
Ok,got to get dinner finished,now....or it will burn...LOL!!
