Guest guest Posted January 20, 2005 Report Share Posted January 20, 2005 With Grace we usually head to the hospital if it is obvious that the vomiting and or diarreah is not going to let up within a few hours. If she cannot keep down fluids (via oral or g tube) we are headed very quickly. Fortunatly Grace rarely gets sick (knock on wood) but there has only been one time that she did have a stomach virus and we did not have her admitted. This was also the time where she regressed the most and longest (she was down for a little over 2 months.) Now, as inconvenient as it is we know it is better to have her in then to try to ride it out at home. Best wishes. Find the music you love with MSN Music – tracks are just 99c!

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2005 Report Share Posted January 20, 2005 > > le, We also have the few hour rule. If they cannot keep food and fluids down and are vomiting or have diarrhea for more than a few hours we head off to the ER or if you are lucky try to get direct admitted. Hope it works out well, Dawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
