Default My baby's sick :(

She has been vomitting since last night and today she has a fever. I'm keeping her from pre-school and she's laying in my bad with dry toast and my poor baby. So, I won't be on much today.

Poor thing! Push that pedialyte, and hope she feels better. Hope you don't get it too!

Default My baby's sick ~ UPDATED

I might have to take her to ER tonight. She has severe dehydration and hasn't been keeping anything down...not even ginger ale. She hasn't peed in 2 days. She sort of did #2 but it was more of a *wet fart* (sorry if it's too graphic). So, I have to keep an eye on her for the next few hours and if she STILL doesn't go pee, then I have to take her in.

Hi Shawna - If she literally has had no urine out put in the last two days I would not wait. She needs to go up to the hospital. I know you posted this last night so I hope you already took her or she started tolerating fluids. Let us know how it's going.....

Shawna, as dehydrated as she already is, I don't think you should wait. Please take her to the doctor right now.

Ya..I took her in. I didn't like the fact that the doctor told me to wait. So at ER they checked her over and said she was fine Actually, he said she has a virus and it will *run its course* Told me to take her home and keep offering liquids. If, after 48-72 hours her symptoms haven't changed then I am to take her in again. I think not. Her pediatrician's office opens bright and early tomorrow and I'm taking her to HIM and see what he thinks.

On a side note...she HAS kept some fluids down today.
