Sick Baby

Poor baby girl's not feeling well today. She woke up and was hungry and thirsty. Since we had water next to the bed, she went for that first. But before we could make it downstairs for food, she ended up throwing up all the water she drank and then acid.

After showering her, cleaning up the mess and getting food in her belly, all she wanted to do was lay down and rest.

Not sure if she threw up because she had hunger pangs, because she had a huge ton of phlegm or a side effect from the Nitrous Oxide treatment.

Luckily a few hours later, she was back to her old self again.

Momma's Got a Cold

Uh ohhhh, I think I'm coming down with a cold. Ugh. And all this preggo Momma can have is warm water with honey and lemon and halls. Hope it works!

Urgent Visit to the Dr.'s

My mom called me while at work because Zoë's eye was swollen when she woke up. She just woke up from sleeping last night, and she was totally fine before she slept. So we knew that she didn't fall or anything. So, either she's having an allergic reaction to something or she has pink eye. It was also bugging her and she wouldn't let my mom anywhere near her eye.

Soooo, I had to leave work, pick her up and take her to the Doctors.

This is what her left eye looked like when I picked her up.

We had to go to Kaiser over in Huntington Beach because there was no other Kaiser who had availability to see her immediately.

When we got to Kaiser, we were surprised with their peds section. It had a huge play house!

Now time to take all her measurements.

Zoë's patiently waiting for the Dr.

Dr. checked her eye out...

And, yup! Pink eye!

She told us that it's very easy to get. Any public place can have it. All Zoë has to do is touch a surface that someone else who had it touched. And once she rubs her eye, bam, infected.

Time to get meds, head home, and have her rest.

Poor Sickie Poo

So I got ready for work and then as I was carrying Zoë through the living room to get to the front door. On the way there, she threw-up a bit, but then she said she was fine. I figured maybe she drank too much milk, which has happened a few times before and off to dropping her off we went.

Today, I had to drop her off at my brother's, which is down Alton Pkwy, which is my exit for work as well. Anyhow, about a third of the way there, the poor baby woke up from her sleep and started groaning a bit. Then, when I looked through the rearview mirror, I saw that she was throwing up. :( Baby girl is definitely sick. I immediately texted my boss and told I'm I had to turn around and go back home.

I did try and find someone to watch Zoë so I can go back into work, but couldn't find anyone. So, I ended up spending the whole day with her. She threw up a few more times on the way back home and then again when we got home. Poor thing. She was dry heaving too. Little girl was miserable.

After I gave her some Tylenol, which she now hates, and had her drink some water, she was able to finally get good sleep.

I managed to stay on top of emails from work while at home and then baby girl woke up. She wanted to play, but at the same time, when she would go down off the bed, she'd start to whimper and ask me to carry her again. She definitely still wasn't feeling well. So, I brought some toys up to her! Even gave her a new toy to give her a bit of happiness while feeling so horrible.

Eventually, she tired of that too and just wanted to lay down and watch shows on the iPad.

Poor baby girl!

Care Package

Got me a mini care package from the hubsters. Just all my medicated needs and what not for this stupid Virus.

Still Sick!

I had a Dr. appt and apparently he doesn't think I have the flu. He says I just have a very bad cold virus that's been going around. He also said I can't get the flu at this time. What? Yes you can. Just because it's not flu season doesn't mean you can't get it, it just means that it's incapable of spreading as easily as it can during flu season. Which means, it's just not as widespread. But come on, your a Dr. and you seriously said that?? Just gives me more of a reason to have greater distrust in physicians these days.

I notified my work that I can go in after my Dr. appointment, but my manager said to just rest at home and get healthy and come back on Monday.

So that's what I did. I literally slept all weekend long. It was just me and the Zoesters. Sick Mommy and sick baby cuddling under the blankets even though it's hot as hell.

Sick, Oh So Sick

Not feeling well at all. I went home yesterday after having the chills at work and slept the whole evening until the morning. I was hoping that would help and I'd be back and ready to head back to work in the morning, but nope! I feel utterly miserable. I have no energy, I feel super weak, I have chills from time to time.. and it's bloody freaking hot outside too, I have body aches, and a slight fever. Dude, I have the flu! Has to be. There's no way a virus would act like this. I called in sick in hopes that I can sleep for the whole day.

Turns out Zoë is also feeling under the weather. Ugh, I think we have the same thing.

Feeling Under the Weather

I'm feeling a bit under the weather this morning. Definitely needed some warm Chai Tea.

For the rest of the work day, I swear I had major freaking chills!

Poor Sick Baby

The little one's temp is starting to go up. :( She woke up with a fever and after her first dose of meds wore off, her temp started going back up.

She was still acting herself though, at least until it was nap time.

I wanted her to rest so bad, but she kept fighting it even though her eyes were droppy. I'm sure her body wanted her to rest too so that she could get better quicker. Finally she fell asleep on me, mouth open and all!

Care Package

Me and Zoë have been feeling under the weather lately so J came home with a care package for us. Cuties and soup! He also brought some sprite and orange juice.

Tummy Aches Suck

Zoë had the most horrible tummy ache while pooping today. She was just way to constipated. It was so sad. So I had J run over to Target and grab some things that would help baby girl. The homies gave some really good advice. Cut the bananas, give her daily probiotics and have some prune purée for the bad days.

Ivan was with him and surprised her with a new toy! Thank you Ninong!
