Yesterday started off like any other normal day. She woke up normal, happy Ella, we had play time then she had her morning nap. When she woke up it was breakfast time. She wasn't interested in food at all. I forgot to mention, Ella has learned the no head shake. No clue how or where this came from, seeing as how we have never said no or shook our heads.. So.. All breakfast was a lot of head shakes. A little later I was in the kitchen and heard Nikki say Jen! Help! I said what? She said come here! I came around the corner to see Ella looking back at me. I was thinking, what the heck is this??? As my mind came to grips with what was going on she got sick again. I was like ooooh nooo. So I picked her up so Nikki could get up and changed but as I was walking with her to her room she got sick all over me, then the floor. Now.. I have never had someone get sick on me, but I guess it was the day for it. I got her changed and everything but she was just lathargic. She wasn't moving or making noises, just wanted to be cuddled so Nikki and her had an hour long bath which seemed to help. She played some and we thought it was a one time thing.
After her bath she took a long nap. When she woke up she was playing a little bit but still wasn't acting her normal self and still didn't want anything to do with any food. We kept trying to give her pedialite but because she has never had juice or sugar and hates water she was not a fan of it. She just cuddled a lot and finally drank about two ounces of the pedialite. About ten minute after drinking the pedialite she got sick again and her face was so sad :(. This is when we started getting worried because each episode wasn't one time of getting sick.. it was 4-5 times and it was projectile. I have never seen anyone get sick like that, especially someone so little.
Ella cuddled and played a little with her Grandma and Grandpa and seemed ready for bed. Nikki rocked with her and thought she was out so went to put her to bed and that's when she woke up and that's when Ella decided to give the grand finale. It went on the floor, on the chair and on Nicole. Off Ella and Nicole went for there 5th change of the day.
Ella felt a lot better after and played quietly for a while. She was in a very good mood, smiling and "talking". She slept till 9 am. She woke up and played a bit but was still a little funny so went back for a nap till 1 pm. She looked to be her old self just a little quieter and cuddlier after her naps. She had a little dinner and took it well. She also had a good bath that I think helped out. She was her happy Ella in the bath and after.
She went to sleep amazingly good tonight, proud of her. She went through a heck of a day but is a trooper.
After a hard day for all of us, a good night and good day to you!
