After losing nearly three pounds, puking countless times and sleeping her life away, the Belle is turning a corner. We visited Dr. Chidekel today to confirm that she wasn't in danger of dehydrating. Her dry diaper, that was on for 15 hours, was what really put me over the top and urged me to take her in. Dr. Chidekel advised that we feed through it (Pediasure since she is refusing Pedialite during the day time hours). The laundry will most likely continue to pile high but if the liquid stays down for even a few minutes she is hydrating. I guess the absorption rate is quicker than I thought.
This afternoon she kept down her first bottle and had her first solid food in four days. She sort of played tonight and was in a better frame of mind.
Too bad Daddy is hanging his head in the toilet now.
