Turn for the worse

Re: Turn for the worse

  • Oh my - Poor Lincoln. Sounds like one really nasty stomach bug. I hope the IV helps and that he is back on his feet soon - And then I hope he doesn't get sick again for a looooooong time.

  • Oh no, I'm so sorry he's not doing well.  DD is just getting over a stomach virus and it was really scary when we couldn't get her to eat or drink anything.  Hoping the IV liquids do the trick, good luck.

  • You guys are all so sweet, thank you!

    We are trying Zofran for a couple of hours to avoid the trauma of an IV.

  • I haven't been very active on this board since early pregnancy but still try to follow when I can:

     

     I'm thinking of you and Lincoln and hoping the Zofran works - we just had an IV in our son for an allergic reaction and it sucks - not sure if he's had one before (I know that's not encouraging but I want to be honest). However, the hosptial and I'm assuming most do a really good job of trying to make them comfortable with it. I was worried he would claw at it but he was feeling so poorly he didn't bother it. So scary when they are sick..

    Lots of good vibes coming your way.

  • Oh no. We hope L feels better soon.

  • Well, Lincoln drank 1/2 an ounce and also nursed for almost 5 minutes and kept it down. I was able to put him to sleep in his own bed instead of my arms so I consider it an improvement. Thank you again everyone for the well wishes. It is very scary to see him this lethargic. I'm praying for a wet diaper and speedy recovery! We got some tylenol suppositories because his fever is still raging and I didn't want him to barf it up.

  • Thanks for the update.

    I'm glad he's keeping something down. Hopefully that means he'll be back to his old self soon.

    FWIW, DD2 gets SUPER lethargic when she has a stomach bug. It scared me so much the first time I took her straight to the ER, and even the triage nurse felt she was in bad enough shape to give her high priority. I'm used to it now, but it still scares me and breaks my heart every time it happens.

  • Zofran works wonders! DD got a stomach bug a couple weeks ago and we went to the ER because she hasn't had a wet diaper in 24 hours and couldn't keep anything down. After Zofran, Gatorade and a long sleep she was doing much better! Hopefully the same will happen for Lincoln too!
