melissad2 Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 It seems that I have contracted the stomach virus from h&ll!!! I've just now been able to scrape myself off the bathroom floor since this afternoon. The baby caught it first and of course I was next in line. My 5yo ds is puking too...poor dad, I'm of no use to him :(. I was sure I was going to pass out a few times, what a TERRIBLE feeling!

HejKatt Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 :grouphug: So sorry to hear that! When my dd was 1 year old, we went through a bout of stomach flu. Our doctor prescribed some anti-nausea medication for both ds (then 5) and dd (1 year) to prevent dehydration.. perhaps that is something to ask about. Hope you feel better soon!

melissad2 Posted December 1, 2012 Author Share Posted December 1, 2012 He did prescribe some zofran today...I've been consuming it like candy :(. The worst part is that somehow I am incapable of throwing up...I wish I could to just get it over with! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HejKatt Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Yes, I think that's what we (the adults) took. I looked up the medication, the kids took Ondansetron - a liquid for the 1 year old, and tablets for the 5 year old. I know I'm repeating myself, but :grouphug: and much sympathy. It's truly awful - is the baby better yet (so you have an idea how long this will last?). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melissad2 Posted December 1, 2012 Author Share Posted December 1, 2012 Yes, the baby is better after THREE days! I won't survive three days of this I don't think! Worse yet, I have to work tomorrow :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinder Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 :grouphug: Ugh--that stomach virus is killer! Ds1 just had it and thankfully no one else got sick. I'm actually amazed no one else got sick. Last time it went through here dd was barely 1 and all the dc were sick at the same time. I thought dh and I had escaped, but no. I got it and it was bad! I was so sick I was going to call dh to come home from work because I just could not take care of the kids. As I was about to call he came walking in looking completely pale--he was super sick too. It was awful. Hope you're better soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k2bdeutmeyer Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Anything that involves puking incessantly hits a little close to home right now. I'm so, so sorry!!!! I really, really hope you feel better very soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
