My poor baby

Ok, so as we learned this past Sunday night, perhaps our beloved nanny didn't have food poisoning as we thought and really had a virus. We discovered this as Abby woke up and proceeded to vomit about 3 days worth of food and did not stop for about 5 hours. Needless to say, Sunday was quite a sad and bad night in my house.

Abby then had a fever, the sniffles, refused to eat/drink and slept - a lot - over the next 2 days. She finally seemed to be back to herself this morning, although she is still refusing to drink anything but a few sips of water.

And not to entirely blame our nanny, who could very well have had food poisoning, Abby did go to a gym class on Friday morning, so it's possible she picked up a nasty bug there. Those places are filled with germy kids and toys.

Jason took her to the dr. today and they confirmed that it was/is a virus and would make its way out of her system soon. We learned that Abby weighed in at 20 lbs, 1 oz, a whopping 3 ozs more than she was 2.5 months ago. We think she probably lost some weight the past few days. Needless to say, we've been anxiously awaiting the return of our happy little girl and look forward to her downing a sippy cup of milk soon.
