I’m not sure what’s up, but Siah had a allergic reaction last night and I was up with him barfing from 3:30am until 7am when Jon took him and let me “try” to get some sleep. I slept off and off for the last two hours, and now……I’m tired.
I had even gone to bed at 10pm to get extra sleep so I wouldn’t be tired. So Frustrating!
And on top of that, I’m not sure what happened.
I did make Shortbread Cookies (with Butter) yesterday for a cookie swap that I’m going to tonight, but I was very careful – or so I thought – that Siah didn’t get any of the butter or the cookie and so I’m not sure if the kids dropped a crumb or what the deal is.
I did eat a few, but typically butter has not been too much of an issue when I eat it (I’m still nursing) and so I’m really baffled on this one.
It was awful. I heard him at 3:30am gagging, and when I went into check on him, he was still sleeping, but when I felt around in the bed there was last night’s dinner….beans and salmon….nice mix to barf up, eh?
So he barfed and then just slept through it…..I tried to clean him up the best I could without waking him, and removed the barfed on blankets, and then I layed in bed waiting……waiting…..waiting….and at 4:30am iswhen he started into it for good.
It’s so awful. Not knowing what to do, or even what triggered it. Did he get some cookie or what?
There is no fever, and the barf has this “not regular barf” smell. I can’t explain it but it sucks….and now I’m tired and he is sleeping, so I might try to catch a half an hour if I can….UGH!
Do any of you deal with allergies for yourselves or for your kids?
I’m so thankful that he’s not having throat closing, breathing issues, because the barfing is enough for me…mind you, we’ve never given him straight dairy and so I don’t know how he’d react to that….I hope I never find out.
It’s so hard when kiddos are sick, and I especially hate the throwing up kind of sick! My daughter has a severe peanut/ nut allergy so we’ve learned to be super careful with food… it kinda sucks, but it’s just part of life now.
I did stumble over here from Shasher’s place – but I actually met you up at Stillwood. I use a screen name most everywhere online, so if you don’t know who I am, feel free to e-mail and ask!
Ah, Patti – sucky, sucky, sucky! I can’t even imagine the challenges you face because of Siah’s allergies. Ayva did her first big girl puke last night (she was with Henri 🙂 and if she did that all the time, especially if I didn’t know why, I would go mental! I hope you get some sleep soon…
