I got a call from Justin's daycare around 3:30pm telling me that he threw up all over. He was so covered they gave him a bath. So I went right there and got him. He threw up again on the way home in his carseat as I was getting him out. It was all over me, him and the Yukon. Thankfully Rob has a very understanding boss so when I called Rob crying he was able to come home and help me. Justin has been sick all night. Everytime he drinks something it comes right back up. If he's empty he gets dry heaves. He's never done this before and I don't know what to do :( We got Pedilite and he kept it down longer than water, but still threw it up. He crys for a bottle and wants something to drink, but we know it will not stay down. Right now he has a bottle with mostly ice cubes in it so he's getting just a little bit.
Any suggestions???? Hopefully I won't need them by morning, but you never know. He has his appointment with the ear nose and throat surgeon at 10am to see why his tube in his right ear already fell out so I will probably just take a sick/personal day and keep him with me after the appointment too.
Here he is snuggling with me between "episodes"..... I don't know what is on his forehead - he doesn't have another bump!
He wants to be happy! He played for a little bit tonight trying to be his normal self...
He kept falling asleep for short periods of time all evening. He held onto the bar under the table and slept like this for about 30 minutes. Right now he's in his pack and play in our room so we can hear if he gets sick again.

Hey I'm sorry Justin is sick:( I think i have heard try a teaspoon of liquid at a time spaced out 10-15 minutes between "sips" good luck, dry heaves suck!
My mom always tells me the teaspoon thing too. If he doesn't keep anything down after 24 hours I would maybe take him in for an IV. I had to do it with Ava at that age. It was really hard, but she got really lathargic after a while, and I knew she had to go in. It was Rotavirus and we were there 3 days:( I know it's so hard to see your kids sick, hope he gets better soon!
Oh, poor Justin! Poor mom and dad, too. He will get better, don't worry.
Poor baby! I hope he's feeling better today. That pic of him under the table is priceless.
