1 hour puke free...

Erica has some kind of bug... puking often. Still seems happy. No fever. Wish us luck overnight.

You know, we've never had to deal with a pukey kid at night. I have 2 extra sheets/blankets/jammies sets waiting for changing.  Pedialyte in the fridge, pedialyte popsicles in the freezer. The one thing about pediallyte though. They sell grape flavour. And what comes with grape flavour? Dark purple food colouring. As in dark purple food colouring puked all over my carpet and all over Butter Bear.  Stupid. If you want it grape, make it "white grape" and don't add any colouring.  Thankfully I thought of the food colouring fiasco before we gave her any grape, but it's almost like money wasted, cause she won't ever drink it.

Any thoughts, advice?

Pepsi and crackers helps me until I can get to a doctor. I will pray he gets better.

Sorry Erica has a bug. Especially sorry for a thumbsdown. That's just wrong. Try ginger ale or sprite/7 up. I was given coke syrup once, an old remedy, and it worked like a miracle! If it starts coming out the other end, put her on a BRAT diet. Banana, rice, applesauce, toast. Other than that, keep poor Butter Bear away from the icky stuff! Good luck.
