Isaac's First Trip to The E.R.


A week ago Isaac woke up in the middle of the night. I ran into his room to see what was wrong and scooped him up only to have him throw up all over me. The joys of motherhood. :) He proceeded to get sick every half hour for the rest of the night. Let's just say that our poor little one was cleaned out in more ways than one. The next day I asked Isaac if he was okay. He said, "Mommy, tummy broke, need doctor."

We waited and tried to get fluids in him, but they just kept coming back up. So the next night we made our first visit to the E.R. with Isaac. They gave him an I.V. and some anti-nausea medicine and then we were on our way. After a couple of days, our old Isaac was back. It was hard to be strong for our little one with all that stuff coming out of his arm, but we did it!

i totally feel ya sister...we were in the ER with owie last week thinking he might have a concussion. after a seemingly standard run-of-the-mill-he-does-it-every-day-head-bump he got up in the middle of the night crying uncontrollably and then threw up his breakfast, so away to the ER we went. 5 hours and one traumatic cat scan later, we went home knowing he was ok, but man it wasn't fun! sorry that isaac had to go through that all...poor little guy. owie had his little cat stuffed animal by his side too :)
