nbr-my little girl had to go to the ER :(
yesterday we spent the day outside at a birthday party in the scorching heat. when we got home, the twins and i took a nap. very odd for my daughter, but i figured she was tired from swimming. she slept for about 2 hours and woke up saying her tummy hurt. figured she was hungry so got dinner ready. she refused to eat so we let her be. then she started vomiting. a lot. she couldn't even keep water down and i thought it might be heat related so around 11pm my dh took her to the ER while i stayed home with our sleeping son. once at the ER she kept vomitting so they tried dissolvable zofran before going for an IV (which would have freaked her out immensely). after the zofran she was able to keep a water and popsicle down so they sent her home with an rx for more zofran if needed.
i was so scared and hated that i couldn't be with her. add the pregnancy hormones and i couldn't stop crying. ugh. i am so glad dh was home for this. usually he is traveling or working crazy hours at the office. he is the calm one...i tend to panic.
thankfully, after they arrived back home around 1am, she fell asleep until 7:30 and hasn't vomited yet...
hate when my babies are sick but thankful she is okay now.
sorry for rambling & thanks if you made it through this post!

So glad your husband was home to help you. Even more glad that your little girl is a bit better
It is so scary when little ones have to go to the hospital and I am sure you felt so helpless!
here's hoping you have an uneventful week!
We have had a very similar trip with our 14 month old and the ER and Zofran. That medicine was a miracle, and she was better in a few days.
It is very stressful! Glad she is on the mend
How traumatizing. Honestly, after my daughter went to the ER (for a dog bite-she's is/was okay)-I think I may have had a hint of PTSD. Seriously, it's so upsetting. So, of course you were/are upset-pregnant or not.
I hope she continues to keep food down. Poor baby.
