Bad few days
Today caps off a pretty bad few days for little Lylah bug. Her poor little immune system is definitely getting a workout. Since the weather started changing, she got the sniffles and perhaps a cold. We have been passing around all sorts of germs at the Green house. So, she couldn't breathe well a couple of nights ago. Last night her sleep was interrupted by some coughing spells, and worst of all was tonight. Tonight capped it off when I had to take her to open house because Shannon was busy at her school tonight. I had an awesome para named Lisa Owens watch Lylah from 515 to about 715. Lylah was already spitting up a lot leaving the daycare at 400. When I went to get Ly at 715, she was still spitting up like crazy and did not finish her bottle. She maybe drank 3 out of 6 ounces. She spit up a few more times on the ways home. But as soon as I got her out of the car, she threw up on me. Most of it went to the ground, but a little got on me. Then I got inside and she was lying her head on my shoulder. No more than about a minute after her first wave came a second and much larger vomit session. At this point her little tummy and body were heaving the formula out and straight down my shirt. That one splashed on the floor. :( About 15 seconds after that came a smaller one, but still heaving. I felt so bad for her, but I couldn't do much. I ended up taking off my soaked shirt, getting a big towel, and undressing her. I also took her temperature which was normal. I changed her diaper and put her in her pjs. She seemed to feel ok, but looked a bit pale. I softly rocked her and put her to bed where she fell asleep quickly. We have had no further episodes yet of vomiting. Here's hoping for a good night. I wonder if she got that nasty 24 hour stomach bug that's been going around my school. :'( I hope not...

I hope your sweet little girl feels better soon. We went through this with Reese. His was caused from reflux and we eventually had to start giving him prescription Zantac....at 6 weeks old! It was crazy, but it helped. I enjoy getting to read about your adventures as a dad. It reminds me of when my babies were little :)

Thanks Jamie! Time sure does fly! Ly will be 7 months old next week! Also, I when i was leaving school today, Ly reminded another teacher of when hers were young! She said, "They are so cute at that age...they can't talk back yet!" It was pretty funny!
