We have a sick baby. :(
This is his very first real illness...
we did pretty good - 9 months without a major bug!!
But he got it - a nice pukey/diarrhea, ear/sinus infecting, green-snot producing, fever having virus. He's been sick for at least 2 fever-charted days now (viruses take 7-10 days to get going).
Poor baby.
And today was supposed to be his 9 month "well-baby" checkup.
:(
He's finally sleeping on my lap right now - which makes a total of 4 hours in the last 24 that he's slept... which is two more hours than me, actually...
And with teething the last three weeks - we've both gotten, on average, 4 hours of sleep per night...
I was hallucinating last night...
This is a lot like when he was a brand new little guy.
But worse, only because I'd gotten used to having 6 hours of sleep or more a night before this...
:(
Muh.
I hope antibiotics for the infections will soothe him sooner rather than later... that still does nothing for the virus... we just have to wait.

HOw's dax doing? Getting any better?
He IS better, thank you!
:)
The snot has stopped, but now he's coughing... which I guess is a sign that he's on the mend. We're into day 5 with antibiotics... so his head-funk can't get any WORSE, I guess...
And he stopped throwing up that night, which was good. I felt it when his fever stopped on Wednesday night. Amazing feeling.
So I guess the virus has run its course too.
:)
*whew*
