Sick

Prince J was having questionable looking diapers yesterday and having a really bad smell to him. In the morning, Prince J was coughing and Jason said he was about to throw up. I didn't believe him because I hadn't heard any gagging sounds. He didn't throw up. Jason's mom watched the kids during my second class and said he wouldn't hardly drink anything she gave him. I nursed him and he did well with that. He seemed fine, with the random cough here and there.

We got home and Prince J sent himself to bed. Wow. He headed straight for my bed and fell asleep on the pillow. I left him there until around 11. I got Prince A changed and took Prince J's temperature and it wasn't anything to be concerned over. Changed his diaper - no poo, thankfully. I tried to put him in the playpen and he was far from happy about it. He didn't get up, just kept crying. Prince A was crying too so I got him swaddled so I would only haqve yo listen to one. Got Prince J out and held him until he fell asleep again. Put him down and he started crying again. I took Prince A to my room and planned to let Prince J just cry it out.

He was getting hysterical-sounding, so I took him to his room, lay down his pillow and a thick blanket, put down him and his stuffed puppy and covered him up with a blanket and laid down with him. I slept by him for just a little while then moved mysef to my room with Prince J . After a while I was woke up by Prince J coughing and gagging and crying. I went to check on him and he had rolled mostly off the blanket and thrown up on himself He was on his back so there was a lot on his face. I rolled him on his stomach so I could unsnap his shirt and pulled it off, and now I'm holding him wrapped in one of his blankets. I got his face cleaned up but its still in his hair and that means now its on my arm and my shirt


By 2, he had thrown up at least 4 times, possibly 5 or 6 judging by his crying. Jason woke me up a little after 7 and told me Prince J had been having diarrhea. He had been helping my dad clean up Prince J and the mess since he got home.

I really need to go to Walmart and get Prince J some clothes today - he's got very little wearable clothes since he JUST outgrew a bunch. And with being sick, a lot of what he had left is in the washer now

My parents are taking him today while I'm in class, and Jason's mom is taking Prince A. We REALLY don't want Prince A to get sick.

Poor boy. I'm so glad I took him out of the playpen.

========================
I just talked to my dad and it sounds like Prince J is feeling better - no accidents, saying "mmm" to macaroni & cheese, and "no" to vienna sausage.
