Puked again... and again...

:(

She didn't like taking the bactrim at all. Finally got it into her though at around 6pm. Then when I went to give her the dose of ibuprofen before bed (which she has taken down very easily before)...she fought it even harder than she did the bactrim. Great. Traumatized her with giving her meds. As soon as the ibuprofen was down her she puked that and her purple berry flavored applesauce back up on me.

Cleaned us both up.

Nursed her to sleep.

Gave her a tad bit more of the ibuprofen since I could see a lot of it in the applesauce puke.

Puked all over me again. ... the whole nursed milk meal this time.

She was happy and giddy by this point and while I was cleaning myself up (and changing my clothes for the second time within 15 minutes)... she was playing with her daddy. She didn't look at all like she'd be ready for bed anytime soon.

Surprisingly though, that was just 15 minutes (or so) ago and she's sound asleep in her crib now. She nursed just enough to put her to sleep. I'm sure she'll be awake in about an hour or so hungry... guess I've got to dig into my freezer stash or go pump now - I didn't get a chance much today to pump and I can tell my supply is definitely going down. On a typical evening, I have 2 four ounce bottles at the end of the day. Today I have just 1.5 ounces. Oops...

Wow, poor you (both of you)! Sounds like that was a tough couple of days. Hope that Laura feels better soon.
