Quick Update

We had decided that Adyn deserved a little treat for how amazing he has been with all our obligations to Owen. We left Saturday for 2 nights with the boys to NH. We planned on going to Storyland and Clark's Trading Post. We did get to see those two places and Adyn had an amazing time!

Owen on the other hand didn't have so much fun. We were up Saturday all night with a screaming, uncomfortable little boy. Owen vomited through Storyland and then proceeded to whine the rest of the trip. We decided to leave early and drove home late Sunday night.

He continued vomiting almost every feed and every time we gave him his meds. He showed no real signs of illness other than the irritability.

Owen was very crabby through the night and vomited again. He woke up this morning extremely unhappy and started with a fever. Owen's nurse Kris and I took him to the doctor's office. Dr. Simmons wasn't in so we got in with our favorite practitioner Lasselette. She is awesome- I was so glad that she was in- I trust her judgement and feel very comfortable with her!

Owen has some sort of virus. He tested negative for Strep and the Swine Flu test will be back later this evening. We plan on a few days of Owen not feeling well and being sick. His GI doctor and I decided that he should go on 24 hour continuous feeds for at least the next week- possibly longer, to give his digestive system a break and hopefully stop all the vomiting and gagging. Definitely not something I am thrilled about but it is in Owen's best interest.

I will update with any additional news.

UPDATE: Swine flu test is negative!! It appears to just be a virus. More updates tomorrow!
