Ryland's First Stomach Bug :(

Ryland woke up this morning with his first stomach bug. Our first clue should have been that we had to wake him up at 7:30am when usually he is the one to wake us up at 6am. He was not really into his morning bottle and did not drink much of it and then all of a sudden he started throwing up. Tab was in the bed room feeding him and I could hear it from the bathroom :( After that spell of throwing up we got him cleaned up and dressed for the day hoping that it was all over. We all went downstairs and I thought I would see if he wanted a Cheerio since it was bland and thinking that it would help the gross taste he had to have in his mouth. As soon as he saw and picked up the Cheerio he made this awful/sad face and then another round of throwing up started. Talk about feeling helpless seeing your little one like this.

After a call to the Dr's office they told us that it was probably the stomach bug that was going around and there was not much we could do but let it run it's course and keep him hydrated.

We kept him out of school today and he has had a much better day compared to his morning. He still has not had a bottle today but if things keep looking good we will probably try giving him a little one before he goes to bed tonight. So far he has done good with the pears and banana that we gave him this afternoon.

Lets hope that a good night's sleep for him will bring a better day tomorrow!
