Where to begin?
Kimber has been very sick the past couple days. It started yesterday morning around 3:30 am/4. I awoke with a start, not sure what I was hearing in the midst of my
sleepiness ...although through some intuition I already knew before I got to her bed she was throwing up. Turning on her night light I found these two very scared eyes looking back at me and when she saw me she reached up and started crying as if to say I am sorry mommy...I didn't mean to. The sound of her scared cry was almost enough to make me want to start crying for her.
Augh...and that was only the beginning of that feeling many more times through out the next couple days. She finally stopped throwing up around 8:30-9 am. But she still did not want any food to speak of yesterday. It is about 3 on Sat and she has still not ate much. Today we have been struggling with it coming out the other end. I am hoping that it is almost out of her system and we can start getting back to normal tomorrow or we may go to the ER. I am mostly worried about her not wanting to drink today. Yesterday she would at least drink liquid. She has been sleeping a lot so I hope that will help her keep her strength. I know this is probably nothing compared to what some of you have been going through lately but to us it is kind of scary since this is the first time she has really been icky sick since she was born. For that I am very thankful. I am also thankful that my husband just walked out the door to run to town and get wipes for her. We had 2 full packages yesterday ... but as of an hour ago we only had enough for probably one more diaper change and so he is going to go to the store. This is one of the few times I actually wish we lived closer to town. When the little unexpected things pop up and you run out of something. That is an update for today. Not a very fun one but life happens and we just try to roll with the punches. Its about 7 now and
Kimber is in bed and still not eating much. Dad is feeling fine still, and mommy is starting to feel sick to her stomach so I am off to bed. Hope this finds you well and healthy.
