These last two weeks have been something else. Olivia rarely gets anything other than the usual winter cough or once she had a pretty bad fever. So to say the last two weeks were stressful and full of worry is an understatement.
It started a couple of Sundays ago when she threw up in sacrament meeting:( Don't worry, i noticed what was going on right away and it didn't get on the floor. That's all the info I'll give on that :) she was so sick all that day and for the next 3 days. To add to it it was all coming out the other end just as bad.
Getting a little worried, I took her into the dr Wednesday and he said she was fine just a gastrointestinal virus and it should slow down soon.
Luckily the throwing up stopped but the other problem was just getting. Worse. So I put up with it for a few more days until this showed up
Little circle rash that was just coming on like crazy. As soon as this showed up so did the cough and runny nose, so into instacare we went for the first time. The dr we saw wasn't to worried about it and gave her some steroids to help. They should only last a day or two he said.
So when I woke up two days after going in there and it was 10x worse I called her pediatrician.
He walked in the room and said "holy cow!" As soon as he saw her! He then had all the nurses and PA's come into see. So sitting there in the office with 7 other people looking at her was crazy :) it was just a reaction to the virus taking over and was not contagious. He got us onto new medications that started to help within minutes. He even called a few days later to check on her:) he is a great dr.
So after all the pokes she got the last few weeks and all the fun play dates we missed; we headed to centros pizza and got a Nutella pizza!!!! She was the best lunch date!!
Thankfully her skin is all better and the "other" problem is slowly getting better :)
