I got it

The stomach bug. Effin awesome. Thom had it last night. I really hope Jacob doesn't get it tomorrow. 

Any tips on getting through this? I'm just staying up, sipping water and getting up off the couch every 30 minutes or so. One of my worst fears is puking in bed, so I'm not even going to try sleeping.

Of course I have a hearing on Thursday that I need to prep for on Wednesday. Didn't get to do all of it today b/c daycare closed early and I had to pick up Jacob. Greeaaaat.

Re: I got it

  • Ack!  I'm so sorry!!!  I hope that you start to feel better soon and that Jacob doesn't get it.

  • Yikes!  It's apparently going around.  Just stay hydrated and it seems you have to let it run its course.
  • Bleh! I'm sorry Rebecca :(. I just know that you're supposed to stay hydrated...

  • Ugh sorry you ended up with the stomache flu.  Def try to stay hydrated.  Maybe try gatorade at some point (just make sure to avoid the red.. I try to stay with the yellow or orange).  Hope you feel better soon, and hopefully Jacob doesn't get it!)

    blech. that is a REALLY good tip! Knowing me, that exactly what I'd get and then freak out and think I was bleeding internally.

    I know this only because it happened to my friend freshman year of college.  We took him to the ER, they did crazy testing on him only to find out  that he did not infact have Ecoli or any other horrible disease.. it was just the red powerade he drank to keep himself hydrated.  Yeah I have not forgotten that wonderful advice.  Everytime I ask my husband to get gatorade or something I tell him to get anything but red even if I'm not sick. 

  • Oh man!  YUCK!  So sorry!  I wouldn't wish that upon anyone!  Stay hydrated and I hope you feel better soon!!
  • Oh yuck, I'm sorry you got the stomach flu!  I had it a few weeks ago, it was total and complete misery.  Are you feeling better yet?  Mine lasted about 24 hours.

    Feel better soon!!!
