So on Thursday my kid gets off the school bus and she is fine, and by 8pm the same night she started vomiting like no-one's business. Aaarrggghh what the heck is going on with her. I couldn't figure it out, I gave her a bath and she asked to go to bed earlier than her bedtime and at that instance I knew she was sick.
I went in 2 hours later to check up on her and she had thrown up again while she was sleeping.........ooh gawd poor kid. I changed her bedding while the husband gave her a quick rinse so she wouldn't go to bed smelling like vomit. She didn't object to what was happening and she just sat there.
Kept my fingers crossed that she wouldn't vomit again and we all went to sleep, low and behold she was upstairs at 1:00am, thank goodness NOT covered in vomit however she wanted to sleep with us. She climbed into bed with us and she was on & off with sleep.
She didn't complain much she just needed to be there with us and on the other hand I of course was getting up every 2 hours or so to check up on her that she was vomiting as well as having to go and pee...as that's the other thing that happens while pregnant....I pee every 2nd hour if not every hour.
We both finally managed to fall sleep again at 6:30am and there was no way that I was going to be sending my kid to school while feeling like crap. I called the school to report that she wouldn't be going in and tried to get back to sleep and it was pointless.
My kid decided to wake up and go downstairs to spend some quality time with her dad before he went to work and surprise.............she had another VOMIT episode. I could tell that she had vomited by the way my husband was huffing and puffing downstairs.....yup the way he handles stuff sometimes is totally wacko....but anyways he cleaned up the vomit and went to work.
I gave her a bath while I was taking my shower...so I could keep an eye for her just in case she was going to vomit again. Knock on wood she didn't vomit and we quickly got dressed and went out to Shoppers to pick up some Infant Gravol so I could run some errands without her vomiting all over the place.
We came back home and she fell asleep on the couch for at least 3 hours while I did a quick tidy before heading out again. Poor kid she just followed suit and didn't complain one bit. We came back home and she went to sleep at her normal bedtime and I'm delighted to say she slept all night and woke up this morning at 8:00am and she looked so much better.
Well my joy for her speedy recovery was short lived as she started having diarrhea. Ooh gawd when is this bug going to get out of her system. Aaaarrgghh it's so freaking annoying. I have been watching her like a Hawk all day and keeping my fingers crossed that whatever it was is out of her system.
The husband and I have dinner plans for tonight so I'm going to give her some Gravol so she can have another good night sleep, gawd forbid the babysitter has to deal with my kid being sick while she is at home with her.
How am I feeling, well I'm exhausted as hell, I feel like I need at least 48 hours of sleep in order to recuperate from this sleep deprivation that I'm currently under. My house on the other hand is spotless as the "Cleaning Ferry" stopped by and gave my house a good overhaul clean-up session. And I was the one caught off guard when "Cleaning Ferry" arrived early...Woot, Woot.
My food intake has been so, so today,I haven't had much of an appetite all day, I guess due to my kid being sick and noticing that she isn't eating much so I don't eat much as well. I'm looking forward to our 4 course fall harvest menu tonight at Earth. The babysitter is coming at 6:30pm and we are heading out literally 10 mins after we say our hello's to her and good night...LOL.
I will be taking pictures of our food that I will blog about later, and of course I will be writing a review on Yelp about Earth so everything better be good...:-)
