I think it was rotavirus. <BR/><BR/>The key is to give them tiny amounts of fluid, frequently. So long as they are producing wet diapers (at least 1 every 6 hours), our doctor told us it was viral and needed to run it's course. I went to the ER with all of them the first time they had it, and they wouldn't give them IV's because they were still able to produce tears. <BR/><BR/>Ice chips are good. But in SMALL quantities. I think I would do a tablespoon every 5 minutes. I also let them nibble on Cheerios. Steer clear of red posicles and Jell-O because if there is any blood in the vomit, you won't be able to see it. (We had kids that were bleeding because their esophaguses were raw). <BR/><BR/>No amount of anti-nausea medicine helped us. We did suppositories because they couldn't keep anything else down and that didn't work, either. <BR/><BR/>THIS WILL PASS.

After yesterday and a good night I thought we might be in the clear. I refilled their prescription today even though I thought we didn't need it. I didn't pick it up yet, but we have just enough to get us through the night.Happy Homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15709433682900249671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34291541.post-54002935963797167842007-10-30T22:03:00.000-05:002007-10-30T22:03:00.000-05:00Time!

Certainly their electrolytes are out of balance. I believe an aggresive Dr. visit is in order. Good thing I'm not there. I might now be able to remain calm when detailing the events of this illness. In Gainesville this past week 2 mothers have had to act as loud advocates for their childre, Justifiably so.How much does each child weigh on the home scale? and based on these home weight how much has each child lost?GrammaGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17299364905200310615noreply@blogger.com
