So upset - - DD has H1N1

I am so upset. DD (19mo) has H1N1 and is so sick (not in the hospital sick thank goodness). We've all had our H1N1 and seasonal flu shots in Oct when I was pregnant.

Since DS was born with some complications we've been pretty much quarintined (sp?) in our home to keep out the germs and nasty viruses to keep him healthy.

Of course, the illness made its way in anyways. So now, DD has swine and DH has an upper res. infection and DS (6 weeks) has a cold. DS (9yrs) and I are okay so far, but it may only be a matter of time.

I am just hoping and praying that little DS doesn't get sick. It can get pretty bad for him if he does.

    Oh no I'm so sorry. It's awful any way but especially b/c she got it even though you got your vaccinations. I hope she feels better soon and that it stays about from your 2 DSs, you, and your DH

    Oh, Jen, I'm so sorry. I know how worried you must be. I hope Sydney gets better soon and Noah stays healthy. Can family come help so you can quarantine them as much as possible?

    Thanks!

    My MIL is going to come over to help keep everyone apart and just help out. Syds sleeping now and DH is a mess with his sickness and is asleep in our room. Justin is fine on his own in the basement playing, etc.

    I am like a freak with the hand washing, hand sanitizer and washing everything in hot water that I can bearly keep up. lol.

    I could go to ILS but they have 2 giant dogs that I am not a fan of with Noah. One is a lovable black lab and the other is a crazy pit/boxer mix but both jump like crazy. I also feel bad leaving DD right now. She is just so sad, tired, sick and needy. All she wants to do is lay with me.

    Her symptoms started the other night with lots of vomiting. Then the 104 fever followed by a hacking cough, red cheeks and stuffy runny nose. I treated for 24 hours at home with no relief and took her to the pedi last night. Flu test was positive (strep, UTI, etc came back neg.)

     Last night was one of the scariest nights of my life (other than Noah going into the NICU). Syd had so much mucous in her that she spent about 4 hours vomiting it all up. We were drenched head to toe (seriously!!) in watery slime. So gross. But she had such a hard time getting it out she was choking. At one point, I was practically holding her upside down and hitting her back to get it out and her to breathe. I hope tonight is better.

    We were given tamiflu for 10 days.

    Man, I am so sorry for your DD.  My DD (also Sydney) has thrown up four times in 15 hours, but no fever yet.  Yikes.
