Jeremiah's first trip to the ER

We had to take Jeremiah to St. Francis Hospital because he kept vomitting and had severe diarrhea. Our doctor said that it was best to go since he wasn't producing much urine. We arrived about 3 am and didn't leave until 9ish. What a long night. He was so good though! He slept a little and smiled and was happy most of the time.


The doctor said he wouldn't give him an iv if he could keep down some pedialyte. The nurse put a nipple on it and Jeremiah didn't know what to think! He's never had a bottle. he chewed on it and was quite intrigued by it. We ended up using a straw and then a plastic squirter syringe.

He had a leaky diaper right after we got there so Joey changed him, but didn't change his shirt.
I looked rough! I had showered and as soon as I got out, Jeremiah woke up. He was okay for about an hour and then he started all the vomitting and diarrhea...
He's doing better now :)

He looks like such a baby!!! What a relief! That is an answered prayer that he is doing better.

He looks like a baby holding that bottle. Very sweet pictures of him sleeping on his daddy's shoulder. I'm so glad he's feeling better.
