So, um, yeah. For your Monday Morning Pleasure, a summary of the last few days:
Last Wednesday Night: Baby wakes up covered in vomit. We clean up, get back to sleep only to be awakened by more vomit in about 45 min. Lather, rinse, repeat.
Thursday: Stay home with baby. Seems fine other than periodic puking. I give him water in a sippy cup and breast milk only. We have high hopes.
Friday: Still throwing up in the morning. Puke now covering everything we own.
Saturday: Things looking up! No puking...here have some crackers! Oh. Oops! Puke.
Sunday: Puke free day. Seriously, not one puke. Baby eats crackers, applesauce. It stays down! Praises be!
Today: 8:00 am. Eager to return to the world of non-vomit, baby returns to daycare (with instructions regarding bland, starchy diet, excess of liquids etc etc) and I return to work.
9am. Phone rings. Daycare. You guessed it- PUKE!
Its OK, really. I totally wanted to use up ALL MY SICK TIME on my kid this month. Because, you know, VOMIT RULZ.
To be continued...

Once, Margot puked up a chocolate cake. I tell you, you haven't lived until you have scrubbed chocolate puke out of a carpet. :-)
Hope the deluge of puke ends soon, for the mama's sake.

BRAT - Bananas, rice, applesauce and totast. Sometimes the bug can be out of their system, but their intestines need to have a reset pushed.
Also good/important. Cheese, probiotics, carrots, potatoes.
M didn't eat anything green for two weeks after she had a bug.
