Oh My!!!!! Let me tell its been one of those months. Its crazy here. This is going to be a bunch a rambles BUT I have to start from the begining.
I really wanted May to be a good month. I was hoping the weather was going to warm up and Jack and I could go for walks and just be outside. As weird as it sounds for a baby,Jack loves grass. So much for not having to worry about a blanket. He sits, crawls and eats the grass. Its pretty funny. Anyway,to start off. My glasses broke. jack has this things where he isnt a fan of things on the face. He is always pulling them off and eventually my glasses didnt fit anymore and one of the lenses was popping out. I need a new exam anyway but I was really trying to wait. Stuff costs!! So I made my apt and about $200 later I got my new glasses. Little did I know Shopko,(thats where i went) could have just redone my frames for free. But now at least I have two pairs. Lesson learned.
So now we are reaching Mothers Day weekend and my moms birthday. We spent that Sunday with my fam and had a good time. Jack did seem a bit fussy but I thought it was just cause he didnt get a good nap. That evening we got home and I took his temp. 101' ok maybe he is getting something. He went to bed fine I figured we would see how the night went. At 1:30am we wakes up screaming. Poor guy. I felt so bad for him. Jason and I were both up til almost five. Seeing how I hadnt had any sleep i called into work and stayed home with my boys. Jack seemed ok and he fever had broke. So I got him some breakfast about six hoping he might go back to sleep. Pretty soon the screaming and crying started again. I just didnt know what to do. The fever was back and now he wouldnt eat or drink anything..... Ok so having Jack first I really lucked out. He really is a great baby. He sleeps through the night. takes good naps. Loves food and his bottle. takes a binky like candy. I dont know how i got so lucky with my first. So my worries started when he wouldnt even take his bottle. I called my doctor and explained our night. We got right in. We take him to the Pediatric Center it about a mile from our house. Dr. Anderson has been his doctor since week one and I just love him. He is so good. So Jack had some fluid in both ears. So back on a med for ten days. But the sad part was that he had a virial infection in the back of is mouth. It was like have a ton of cranker sores back there. That explained why he wouldnt drink. We went back home with some Pedialite and his medicine. That evening things got worse. Jack was throwing up everywhere. it was awful. I called my dad and he and Jason gave jack a blessing. I felt better but our next right was pretty much a repeat.This time jack and I just slept on the couch. jack would just lay there and stare at me. I felt so bad for him. I just cried and said my prayers that he would get better. I stayed home from work again on tuesday and jack did seemed. That night he slept all night. Jason stayed home on Wednesday just to give him another day of rest.
I may sound lame but Jack is just such a happy baby. I really do feel that this may have been my true welcoming into Motherhood. This was really one of the worst two days we have had since he was born. Werid Im sure.
Among other things, our house was put for sale, and we found out we are expecting Baby#2.Talk about over load in one week. The pressure was really on and things just werent feeling right. So one week later we took the house off the market. Im not ready to leave our little home. I love it here. Im really excited about the new baby coming. Im only about ten weeks but i am definetly sick. I was sick the whole time with Jack, and it seems worse with this one. At least with Jack I could puke and get it out of my system. Now I just feel like crap all day. but its going to be fun. I have two sister-in- laws who are also pregnant so the babies will be close in age. Well I know this was alot. Somethimes you just have to let it all out at once.
Oh so sad. Its hard to see your kiddos sick and not much you can do to help them. I didn't realize you guys had put your house up for sale. Where were you going to move to? Congrats to the new baby! Maybe since your sicker it will be a girl???? Good luck!
ReplyDeleteWe hope it's a a girl because our little one needs a cousin to play with. Poor little Jack he is so cute and it's the worst when they are sick. So glad the triplets are all having babies together who would ever thought. We need to have a reunion that is for sure.
