Two days down...

And no sick!! YAY! Diorea seems to have gone too. Maybe the end is in sight! Tomorrow we try food again (bar the odd crust and chocolate other half decided she should eat!) so we shall see!

Have you ever tried to get a urine sample from an 11month old girl?! That has been my task tonight, to send in 1st thing in the morning for the doctor to rule out any urine infection that might be causing the sickness. I have tried:
  • Sitting on a potty...this only works if they are older and don't almost fall into the thing, and scream to get off.
  • sitting on my knee...does not work as by the time the wee had seeped through my trousers and I realised it was too late to hold her over the potty.
  • hovering over a potty...also a no no as your arms give out and the baby wriggles to get free.
  • snuggling baby, with hand on bum....this works! unlike the sitting on the knee business, you feel the wee straight away and can hold over the potty which is in position to catch the wee!

So there we have it, just got to try get it in the small pot now ready for tomorrow.....
