JuneBugs first BUG!

 The wee hours of Tuesday morning after our diaper party Junie woke up around 1:30 coughing and whining. We listened for a moment but she really sounded like she didn’t feel good so Dane went and got her as soon as he was passing her over the bed to me he said “she feels REALLY HOT” and as he handed her to me she threw up. So I jumped up into mommy mode and grabbed her turned the light on and started giving poor daddy a list of things I needed! We put a towel on the bed and tried taking her temp but she hates thermometer. I could tell she had fever but I alson knew she was too upset to try and give medicine which she also hates! Makes it so much harder when your baby is sick. & I knew if she wasn’t done throwing up it would hit her tummy and come back up. She threw up 2x at 1:30 and she whimpered and was so upset and lousy until she dozed off wrapped all around me. I sat up holding her until she started getting even more restless at 3:30 and threw up again. I put on a movie for her and just held her close to me. She was cold and shivering and just pitiful. She fluttered in and out of sleep and at 7:30 she seemed like she wanted to feel better but just laid on me she wanted to be held close and tight and had her arms wrapped around my neck most of the morning. 


At 10:40 I looked down and she had fallen asleep laying on my belly watching her movie. I tried to lay back on a couple pillows to see if I could sleep some while she did. I think I slept for an hour but I was worried about her because she was so hot off and on. Her body did a good job of fighting off the bug and fever on her own though.



 She slept good she did move around quite a bit but she slept until 2:40. She was ok enough for me to FINALLY get up and pee! & I ran to the kitchen and got her some crackers. She ate 4 crackers and took a couple sips of Gatorade.


 I could tell she so badly wanted to play and be happy she just didn’t have it in her. I was so happy to hear her jabber a little bit. Thank the good Lord Dane Michael got home about 3:30 ish and when she saw her daddy come in our room she climbed off the bed and looked at us ran to the door and paused to see if we were following which of course we were lol I can’t explain the exploding feeling my heart had watching her use her fast legs after such a lousy morning/day! She of course ran to the kitchen. I made her some new cold Gatorade and oh my gosh she was happy she drank it down and ate 2 more crackers and eventually some French toast sticks. 

Not gonna lie, the days after her being sick were much harder than the day she was sick. Her attitude was on a whole new level her schedule was completely off and she had me at my breaking point several times. The worst part was being confused about if she was better or if she was acting so grumpy because she was still sick and wondering if I should take her to dr to check for possible ear infection. Thankfully we worked hard on getting her back on schedule for a couple days and finally on day 4 I think of post sickness I could see my baby coming back to her normal funny self! 













I just LOVE her! Ps that booger had been hanging on for like 3 days I kept trying to get it but it wasn’t worth the battle lol I finally got it that night!
