15 month stats...

Baylee turned 15 months on October 4 but due to her severe ear infection and the high fever it caused we decided to hold off on all of the shots until she was well. Monday morning she went to see her pediatrician. Here are her stats... Weight: 21 lbs 9 oz (25th percentile) Height: 30 1/4 inches (35th percentile) Head: 18 3/4 inches (88th percentile)...still has the large noggin She received 3 shots and goes back on November 1st for her flu shot. She was given a clear bill of health and we were told her ears looked great. Now, Fast forward ONE day... Yesterday (Tuesday) I go to pick her up from daycare at 5:00. She was lying on the floor on a pillow and her teacher was rubbing her back. She was awake but her eyes were SO weak. Normally when I pick her up she runs as fast as her little legs will go to get to me but not yesterday. She just looked up at me with her weak eyes and I knew she wasn't well. By 6:15 she was down for the night with no supper in her tummy. She wouldn't eat a thing. Around 9:45 I was getting ready for bed and I heard her coughing in her monitor and she started crying. When I walked into her room I leaned over in her crib to feel for her pacy and I put my hands in vomit. :( From that point on she was up and down all night and she probably threw up a total of 4-5 times. I called her daycare this morning because I was worried that it was something that she had eaten. One of the teachers assured me that there was a stomach bug going around and she was convinced that Baylee had caught it. I called her doctor's office and the nurse told me that if it is indeed a stomach virus there is nothing that they can do. It just has to run it's course. Luck for me Carl's grandmaw kept her this morning until she had to go in to work at noon and my boss let me leave at 11:00 so grandmaw could head to work. Baylee is asleep now and has been for over 2 hours. I am hoping that this is indeed just a 24 hour thing and she will be back to her wild self by tomorrow morning.
