Rough Day

Taylor had a pretty rough day yesterday. She had severe gas and cramping thru all hours of the night. By late morning she started throwing up and that lasted for 2 hours! She then took a nap for two hours until the docs came in and evaluated her.

Daddy and Bryce arrived when she was throwing up so she couldn't even enjoy their arrival - bummer! She actually missed about half of their visit while she was getting sick and then sleeping. I was so sad for her. They did put her back on the IV fluids (they had only been giving them at night) so this helped her perk up a bit by mid afternoon. At that point she was able to enjoy having the boys here.

She and Daddy worked a puzzle and played. By late afternoon she even felt like getting out for a couple of walks. On her first walk she pushed bear in the stroller, but by her second walk she pushed Bryce in the stroller - so cute! Bryce loved being with big sister again. He wanted to love on her all day - even when she didn't feel like it. At one point when she was throwing up he reached over and patted her on the back. Such a sweet boy!

She started having some cramping at bedtime, but it was not enough to effect her sleep - thank the Lord! She slept really well last night. We always are awakened by nurses checking pumps or taking vitals, but thankfully she was able to fall right back to sleep.

The docs rounded about 7:30 and want another x-ray. We will be heading down for that at anytime. They will keep her on the IV fluids again today and let her start eating and drinking again. We are not pushing it though. They will continue to keep her off the Flagyl - this med could have caused the vomiting.

Thanks for prayers...
