What a rough day! Poor baby Jacob is so sick. I took him to the dr yesterday and they said he has croup so they gave him steroids for his throat. Then I also told the pediatrician about this thing that he does with his eyes. I had taken a video of it and brought it along. She showed it to two other pediatricians and they are all stumped. She's now trying to get ahold of a pediatric opthamologist (sp?) who recommended that she get a urine sample. So today we went back to get the urine sample. Wow, if you thought peeing in a cup is bad... So they put a little bag over his peepee and it kinda suctions on and then you just wait til he pees. Well, my very miserably sick Jacob, coughing, sniffling Micah, and I sat in a gray room with minimal toys for at least an hour, no pee. By the end both boys were crying and I was pretty close. The sweet nurse came in and said just go home and bring the pee back in this cup later. Lol so Jacob is now napping, I don't know if he's peed yet, hopefully if he has it's staying in the bag.
On a happier note my darling husband came to the office as we were leaving and carried the heaviest of us to the car, put Jacob to bed and got Micah a video. So now, for a moment I have peace, I'll let you know how the transfer from bag to cup to dr's office goes :)
poor little buddy! and poor mommy! we had a similar experience when the girls were 3 weeks old, we spend 3 hours in the ER in the middle of the night waiting for paisley to pee in a little bag. what a nightmare. turns out girlfriend had a uti. hope everybody is feeling better soon!!
