I MAY NEVER BUY RASPBERRY YOGHURT AGAIN

Warning - those of a nervous disposition please stop reading here!

Alice, illness, continues.

She was fine overnight, but woke at 7am ish (early for her), crying (very unusual). The sleeping bag trick worked - you can imagine the nappy, ugh. So, having consulted with the receptionist, I made a doctor's appointment for later in the morning. Doctor confirmed that Alice has a D and V bug - not difficult to do given the smell in the surgery before the end of the consultation. She went through many nappies this morning, but settled down by lunchtime (like yesterday) and was fine this afternoon. I gave her scrambled eggs and toast again (I know she shouldn't have too many eggs, but I'm hoping that they'll help her system). She had a jar of spag bol for supper.

She's more tactile than usual, sticking close to me and wanting to stay close. She's less vocal but more whingy, but if you didn't know her then you wouldn't know that she was poorly.

Bath time fun with no problems. Whingy for her bottle. Vomit, EVERYWHERE. Lots of vomit, screaming child, drenched mother and child. I moved her onto the changing table to start cleaning her up, more vomit, grabbed a towel, more vomit. Alice's 'thing' is definitely vomit, but this out did all previous episodes combined. It was a novel experience to have to change her nappy because the outside was saturated.

Clean up with wet wipes. Pink medicine. A clean baby-grow. A little milk. A big cuddle. Bed. Then I continued with the clean up.

Oh! The raspberry yoghurt? Part of supper, smells the same the second time around as the first, ugh!
