Ock!

Well, I guess it was finally our turn to get the "crud" going around. It started on Saturday afternoon with myself. Out of the blue , I just did not feel well. Sure thing a little later I had lost what little lunch I had time to eat. I immediately felt better, so I figured I just ate something bad. Later that evening while out for a friend's birthday, I could barely even look at food, and finally ended up having Allen bring me home. After being home a while, the sickness had "doubled" (if you catch my drift) and was accompanied by fever of over 100 degrees.

Then next day Al let me stay in bed (rightfully so) and took care of Tyler. But in the early afternoon he came in the bedroom to let me no that Tyler just had a diarrhea diaper. GREAT.... I got up and moved to the couch. Tyler did pretty much nothing but sit or lay with me all day. He hardly ate anything, and lost what little he did, and the diapers continued. We stayed home Monday, and Tuesday. By Tuesday afternoon, he was acting a lot more normal - Yay! He's getting better! I took Tyler to daycare Wednesday and Thursday, and only had one diarrhea on Thursday and was eating agian. Well this morning after only 40 minutes at work, I got a phone call....... He ate just a few bites of breakfast then lost everything and soaked his clothes. YUCK! Needless to say we are at home again today.

For the most part he is acting pretty normal, and I have him on the BRAT diet with Pedialite to drink. His BMs are getting more solid so I am hoping this will help and he will be on the mend. I am told there is a strand of flu going around that last 1 week to 10 days. All you moms with little ones, be on the lookout!!! I hope you all are a lot healthier than us.
