Swine Flu

So this has been an interesting time of learning new "responsibilities" as a mommy! For the most part Kenzie is a pretty easy sick baby. All Ive had to do is feed her (whenever she will let me), rock her, take temp, give tylenol, and watch her sleep. Well today started a new phase of the Swine Flu... Diarrhea! So those of you who are mommies know that along with diarrhea comes TERRIBLE diaper rash. I kept reading the best thing for diaper rash is to let the area "breathe". So that's what we did...








Unfortunatley, after being peed and pooped on and my third set of clothes for the day, I decided it was time for her to wear a diaper again! I do have to say today has been the hardest day of her being sick cause she has been miserable ALL day!

I had a "brilliant" idea on how to get rid of the diarrhea---give her food that would constipate her. Seems like a good idea, right? Well, in case you dont know----its a BAD idea! Lets just say now she is grunting every time she needs to go and is even more uncomfortable!
Well Kenzie's calling. Better run!
