Riley had come down with the Daycare Drip about a week and a half ago. Since then he has been congested and snotty. On Thursday he was taken to the doctor by Nic and her Mother because he had goopy eyes and green snot. The doc had diagnosed him with an ear infection and prescribed amoxocilin. This had not worried me to much, as I had a great many ear infections when I was a child.
Yesterday morning, however, he threw up twice. We called Nic's mom to come and stay with him during the day. He vomited twice more while Nic's mom was here, but the last time had been at 9:30am. We got home and he was a little bit fussy, but hadn't vomited in 6 hours. Then he vomited more, on me, on Nic...he hasn't kept anything down all through the night. We will be going to the doctor again at 8:30am.
Sorry for an un-concluded post, but I needed to tell it so I could not be keeping all that worry inside of me. Please pray/cross fingers/send well wishes to/for my son. I will post or edit this post after the doc visit to tell what else is going on.
Edit: So the doctor visit was really a nurses visit. We were told to give him tiny amounts of fluid every few minutes, essentially dripping moisture into him. We did this for the past near 12 hours, but it got to be to much for Riley and we disobeyed recently and let him nurse for a short amount of time. He seems to be happier, which relieves us tremendously.
