Vacation + Ilness + shots = Crappy Sleep!

My poor LO. We went out of state for DS to meet DH's family and we were there for 10 days, on day 3 both DS and DH got a stomach bug. Both were vomiting violently, fever, diarrhea, I ended up at the children's hospital's ER with DS, he was was not himself all week despite the bug being one of those 24 hours bugs. I was so afraid he would throw up at night we bedshared almost all week, plus I didn't want to wake up anyone at my friend's house.

We came back and next day LO gets his 6 month shots(yesterday), he's been running a low grade fever, and the poor thing is so sore, I couldn't jump back into sleep training--we were doing a modified Ferber and we're getting good progress :(

Oh, did I mention he lost almost 2 lbs while he was sick!? So the pedi said for right now nurse any time he wants even at night if he so wishes.

How will I ever get us back on track???

  • Awh that sucks. Hope your baby feels better soon.  I would hold off on sleep training until everyone is back to 100%.  Sounds like it was pretty rough, hopefully it won't take long to get back to normal. 

    I think coffee will be your friend for a couple of weeks Smile
