Soup! Wonderful soup!

I don't know what it is about having a baby, but I've had more stomach illnesses in the time since his birth than in the previous five years. Probably day care, they're a vicious vector. *wry*

Monday night saw us all at the ER to deal with dehydration from the latest one. Not my idea of fun, but apparently they're seeing a lot of that lately; there's something going around. I've been out from work yesterday and today. I'm hoping I'll be well enough to go back tomorrow, as I'm up to chicken soup today (yesterday it wasn't even something to try, trust me). I've been remotely checking work email a couple times, and responding to everything that seemed to need it, which is a lot better than I was doing yesterday (then again, I was asleep for long stretches of yesterday, since I got almost no sleep the night before).

This month's pictures of Drew will include a couple of him sleeping soundly, nestled between my legs on the hospital bed at the ER. Since I took them, you can't see my face or how I looked, so I'm willing to put them up. Heh.

Think good thoughts for me, folks. I think I'm firmly on the mend, and I'd really like to be right.

Ick! I'm glad you're feeling better, but it sounds bad to deal with in the first place. :(

[kyrielle]

Thanks. Yeah, it was pretty miserable.

Yay, feeling better and cute pictures. Boo, stomach bug. I had that happen to me about a month ago or so. It was awful. Somehow, my SO didn't catch it. I have no idea.

I look forward to pics! :)

Thank you, and you have my sympathy as well. Those things are nasty.

Hope you and family are all feeling better.

[kyrielle]

Thank you. So far so good - Drew had at most a mild version, Scott never had it at all, and I think I'm doing better.

I'm glad you're doing better. Thinking thinking thinking!

Thank you! Keeping fingers crossed. So far so good this morning.

I have been known to describe my children as "little bacteria-laden viral incubators." Kids just carry everything; that's why hospitals restrict visitation from kids under a certain age during flu & cold season, especially.

*thinks intensively good thoughts*

[kyrielle]

*wry* Yeah. I'm glad Drew doesn't get sick much, but aie what I end up with...heh.

So far so good. Fingers crossed....

Stomach bugs are never fun. I've had my fair share of them myself. Or kidney stones. Ugh!

Glad to hear you're getting better though! Keep ya in the thoughts that you return to normal soon, and manage to stay bug free for a while!
