This morning I bathed Ryan, dressed him and nursed him. I then carried him downstairs to answer the door. As we walked into the living room, Ryan vomited. That was around 10.45 am And, it's now 2.38p and he has been asleep since.
We've been on the phone with our Pediatrician several times. (Have I mentioned how much I love and appreciate Dr. Rhame?) He has looked at all the tests results from the hospital, talked to the hospital's attending Pediatrician, and to his GI Specialist. We've decided to stop the formula, nurse as much as Ryan will, and offer Pedialyte in between feedings. We'll go in and see Dr. Rhame tomorrow afternoon. If Ryan seems to be dehydrating, or having a tough time breathing, or looking pale, then I'll take him back to the ER again. Hopefully, the next 24 hours will just go smoothly and we won't have to do that.
7.55 pm update: Ryan continues to vomit every couple of hours. Dr Rhame has been keeping in touch with us & we're going into his office tomorrow. Hopefully, we'll get through the night. At least he has the energy to be a little grumpy tonight.
