I feel like a deer in headlights today. Bo woke up 3 hours early, has taken two cat naps, threw up a little, has diarrhea, and does not have a temp.
The symptoms could also be because:
A. I know this sounds crazy, but I gave him one of those Gerber fruit and veggie pouches today since we were on the run-- could that be it? He has never had anything like that before (I have made all of his purees and other food) other than Go-Go applesauce which I believe are pretty mild.
B. I was trotting, swaying, and dipping with him on my shoulders at the mall! He then went in his carseat and fell asleep--as soon as he woke up I went to put him in the buggy at Costco and he threw up a little.
Is this a bug? lack of sleep? Over exposure to germs from shopping? Am I crazy?
In my defense, Bo has never been sick other than the normal immune building cold. Hand to God this baby has spit up maybe 10 times in his life sooooo I am kind of freaking out--kind of staying calm-cool-and collected, but mostly freaking out.
Your thoughts?
Re: FTM question
Oh no!! So what do I do? Flame if you will, but when I have a tummy bug I just drink 7-up and chicken soup!
I am guessing I should keep an eye on his temp and fluid intake?
That sounds about right. Sounds like he might just be fighting something off a little. Lots of extra snuggles help too
Yup.if he likes crackers, worth a shot. O loves oyster crackers!
Yep, we just went through this. I freaked out too, because just like Bo, Carter had never been really sick and rarely spit up. And no fever. All pp gave great advice. We're 5 days in and he's still having diarrhea.
I hope Bo gets over it quicker than Carter! Poor little guy.

Thank you all SO MUCH! For the babies that have had this or still have it I hope they all get better soon--what a nasty little bug this is! I will follow all remedy suggestions and hope for a quick recovery! Poor Bowen! TMI alert! Now I have it too---I wonder if my H thinks I am so cute now after I have been up all night getting sick and peeing out of both from unda holes? What in the world is this?!?!? I feel terrible.
I hope you get over it quickly!

Say wha? It must be going around! My ILs had it a few weeks ago, my H had it earlier this week but did not actually vomit...so gross!
I hope we all feel better soon! I had 4 days of eating planned! Grrrr!
