Very, very sick baby

Thomas is so sick, it's horrible!  He has had a fever of 102-103 for the past 4 days.  I took him into the Dr. on Monday, and he did a full exam, and Thomas has a viral infection, so he has no meds for him, he just has to wait it out.  Well, he's getting really dehydrated, so I think we may have to take him into the ER to get him some more liquids.  He won't eat or drink anything, I have offered everything I can think of, he did eat a few bites of James's cheesecake last night.  But he throws up everything he eats.  Poor baby. 
I did find a new pediatrician though.  Our old one was just getting on my nerves.  I called his office to set up Thomas's 15 month shots, they told me they dont do shots anymore, it costs them too much.  So I said "well, where can I go then?" (I mean really, isn't that what the dr does, where else can I go?)  The county health office.  Yeah, right, like I'm going to go there where there is some nurse who sees 500 people a day and couldn't care less if my baby cries when he gets poked with a needle.  Then, I tell them he's really sick, and I wanted him checked out, they said "We don't have any openings today or tomorrow, take him to the instacare"  What's the freaking point of a pediatrician if I don't ever go there for Thomas's medical needs.  So I found a new one through my insurance.  I really like him.  In the one appt we had he gave me 5 different ideas of how to help Thomas with his weight gain (other dr just said, give him more food, and he'll grow out of it)  he gave me stuff to help his dry skin and told me Johnson's can sometimes have bad effects on some really sensitive kids (other dr just said to put more lotion on it when he came out of the bath and to bathe him in lukewarm water.  Really? What toddler wants to bathe in almost cold water?)  And he told me exactly how to give Thomas ibuprofen, and what other stuff to give him to help combat his cold (other dr just said give him some tylenol)  So, I am much happier.  Depsite the fact that I am getting ready to take Thomas to the ER once he gets up from his nap.  I am only blogging because I already cleaned my living room, kitchen and bedroom and finished my hw, and I am going insane just sitting here.  I need to help Thomas somehow!!!

Laziness

That is the only reason I don't post more often.  That and I know only about 2 people read this blog, which is fine.  I don't expect to be famous or anything, I'm no Poe.  That and the past few weeks have been the worst part of pregnancy. Sick all the time, tired even when I first woke up, not eating anything, wishing my son would enjoy just watching gilmore girls for 5 hours a day (I know, I'm a great mother).  But now, I am happy to say, I have made it out of my 1st trimester, and am now onto the 2nd!  It's nice, I still need a nap some days, but I can eat almost anything (expect for bacon, sometimes I love it, others, I hate it).  The only thing that has stuck around is food aversions, they are always changing, what I love one day, I'll hate the next, but atleast I have variety in my diet! No more toast for breakfast lunch and dinner.  Needless to say my Dr. got upset when I went in for my OB appt and I had lost 5 lbs.... She gave me a lecture about how I need to be going up, not down.  So I'm trying to get fat.  It's actually kinda nice to have that goal rather than to get skinny.  Getting fat should be much eaiser right?  Nope, still no weight gain, and I have another appt on Thursday.... Here comes the lecture I'm sure!
Also, I think I've convinced James to give to me as a Christmas present an ultrasound so we can find out the sex early :)  It's only $45, and it's in my dr's office.  I can find out in about a week and a half, so we are totally going to.  At first he thought it was totaly stupid and frivolous (which it is)  but he has come around to thinking it's may be a good idea (easy Christmas gift!)  I'm so excited.  I think it's a girl, but there is really no telling at this point, we'll see!
And my new nephew Carson was born on Saturday.  He's adorable and tiny, and made me very excited for another tiny little baby.  Probably because he didn't cry, or vomit, or poop the whole time I was with him :)
