How we spent Easter morning...

The week following Sawyer's tubes were rough to say the least...

After his tubes were implanted and his adenoids were removed, the doctor told us that nausea and vomiting would be a normal side effect.  However, after a few days, I called the ENT's office to let him know that Sawyer was still throwing up after every meal.  The nurse said that she didn't think it had anything to do with the surgery and advised us to take him to our family doctor.  This all happened Thursday afternoon.  I took him to the doctor in Thomasville who said that she believed he must have caught the stomach bug from someone at the hospital.  She said that there was really nothing they could do for a baby his age other than make sure they stay hydrated.  I took him home with the thought that this "bug" would be gone in the next 24 hours.  The next day, we left to go to Moulton for Easter weekend.  Sawyer did not feel well on the trip.  Finally after throwing up everything he ate all weekend, we left early Sunday morning and took him to St. Vincent's ER in Birmingham.

Isn't his face just pitiful...

 The doctor told us that Sawyer didn't have the stomach flu, after all, but instead was having nausea due to infected adenoids.  He prescribed him to Zofran.  I was so relieved to have an actual diagnosis for what was causing the problem, but I hate that we waited so late to take him to the hospital. 

He has been perfectly fine since we got back home....AND no more ear infections!!!
