Peanut woke up covered in puke this morning. After a bath, he sat down for breakfast with Janie. He seemed to be acting like his old self so Mama took him to school. Just as she arrived a work, there was an urgent call from the school saying he was shivering, his lips were bluish, and his hands were really cold. So, Mama rushed back to school to pick him up. As we were checking out, Peanut threw up again – all over Mama and then again all over the floor of the school lobby. Yuck.
At home, Peanut got a second bath and seemed to be just fine again.
After the bath, his lips turned blue again and he seemed really tired.
So, he sat down in front of the tv and fell asleep sitting up.
Poor baby was wiped out.
The advice nurse said to keep him on only clear liquids for the day and that’s what we did.
After his nap on the sofa, he perked up and did some coloring.
Then he had some clear chicken broth for lunch and couldn’t get enough. He must have been starving.
Luckily, he didn’t have a fever, didn’t turn blue again, and kept all the water and broth down. He seemed well by bedtime.
