Oh my, what an afternoon we've had.
I picked Landon up from school and he was just waking up from his nap. He seemed fine, just groggy from waking up. He drank his juice in the car on the way home. We pulled in the garage and he said he had a headache. Poor baby. So we came in, and I gave him some Motrin. He wanted a popsicle and so he got one and we went to the living room. There we found about 4 piles of cat vomit on the carpet. Ugh! I got Landon settled on the couch, I turned on a cartoon, lowered the shades and made it dark. I could also smell cat poo. I went to the cat box to find she had pooped all outside the box and down it. Great. Welcome home Priscilla.
I got the cat box cleaned, then started for the floors. Landon was on the couch whimpering. I decided to wait on the floors. I sat down next to my sad little man. He had his hands over his eyes crying his head hurt. I held him for a little bit and then he seemed ok. He snuggled on the couch while I tackled the floors. When I was done I sat down next to him and rubbed his feet. We had about 20-25 minutes until we had to leave for my Doctors appointment. He said he was going to be sick and we headed to the bathroom. He never got sick but was miserable. I was about to cancel my appointment. Then he asked for the iPad. It had been an hour since I gave him his meds and figured they had kicked in.
We were heading out the garage door and he all of a sudden had to get sick. I whisked him up to the sink where he threw up. I had to be at the doctors in 20min. As soon as I got him cleaned and was grabbing my phone to cancel he asked for a snack and water. I thought he was ok. He munched on a few crackers and sipped some water. We were at my appointment, he just nuzzled in my chest while we waited. I got called back pretty fast and he was sitting next to me, next thing I know he was going to throw up. I was hooked the BP cuff, and pointed him to the bathroom. He got sick all over the floor, I tried to jump up but I was attached. Poor baby.
My appointment was short and sweet. I didn't gain any weight, WHEW, my BP was a tad high, but I figured it would be, haha, the baby's heart rate was 140. Landon enjoyed hearing it. My belly measured at about 33 weeks. But I think he was facing a weird. My belly felt square the way he was laying. He felt him and said he was still head down and looked great. He is waiting for the list of on call Doctors to come out. Then he will go from there to find a Doctor who can commit to my VBAC if I got when my doctor is on vacation. I go back next Wednesday!
So we got home, Landon asked for some crackers when he laid down and some water. It had been about 30+ minutes since he got sick, so I gave him a few. While he was eating he vomited all over the couch. I caught most of it in his blanket. On our way to the bathroom he lost it all over the carpet by the front door, then again on the bathroom floor. My poor baby. He whimpered for a minute, then asked to go back to the couch. As soon as he layed down he was like, "Mommy, I'm hungry, I want a lunchable!" I told him he had to wait and to be still on the couch for a little bit. After about 10 min he was BEGGING me to eat. Now he was talking and laughing at his cartoons. A good sign! So I went and got some crackers and water and he did great. He held it down and then started playing. Next thing I know he was in the bathroom, uh oh I thought. He was just going potty. After an hour he was begging to eat again so I made him some dinner. He is now fine and running around and playing. He said his headache is gone and his tummy is better. Weird. I am thinking he just had a bad headache. Who knows? It sure did worry me.
I was thinking about how I deal with stuff like this all the time at work. It doesn't bother me a bit. Then at home when it's Landon it just breaks my heart and it makes me worry. It makes me so upset when he is throwing up, I hate it, it breaks my heart!
The above picture was after his last vomiting, poor guy.
The picture below is him now, playing on his iPad and have a good ol' time!
Oh and when all this vomiting was going on the sky got dark dark, then we were in tornado watch, golf ball size hail and storms. Luckily, after about 30 min it got light out and the storm went south of us, we didn't get anything, Whew!
SO, now I have to have my carpet's steam cleaned, they need it anyways, good thing no one has wanted to come look at our house. It's been about a month now. Well, almost a month. I thought with lowering the price that we would have some kind of traffic, but nothing. Way to get my hopes up again!
