my poor boy!
Arrrgh woke up this morning and thought Gabe had been sick in the night as there was runny orange stuff under his head - well it wasn't sick - it was POO! He'd had such bad diarrea that it had gone all in his HAIR, all over the cot bars, well everywhere really. His vest was ruined, grobag was soaked thru! I had to give him a quick strip wash with wipes and pick bits out of his hair (oh the joys). I couldnt give him a bath as OH and bil's rooms are both next to the bathroom and I'd wake them both up! At 10 months he's too big for the sink. So I used half a pack of wipes and he stank!!! I've had to wash his hair in a bowl and strip wash him again with baby wash (he wasnt happy) and I can STILL smell it.
Being a mum is so much fun isnt it! :roll:
I feel so bad for him though! I hope he's OK. He seems his normal self so just trying to get fluids in him.

Cameron had bad diarreah a few weeks ago and it was like this, really watery. but he was fine after a few days. if he will drink water or juice offer it to him very often so that he doesnt get dehrdrated

Have to say althoiugh I'm normally a considerate person I'd have made OH & BIL lump it and used the bath!
I have to agree though that I would have given him a bath anyway too.

Hope I didn't put anyone off their breakfast, I did go into a bit too much detail!!!
He doesn't seem poorly at all, no temp, looks happy and alert...very odd!
I have to say though I'm one of the ones who'd have been really lod while cleaning an bathing him
I remember when Ollie did something similar - had to wash down the whole cot as well as he'd woken up and tried to get away from the poo....

Archie had a terrible exploding poo once and was inside the fornt of his vest, when I took vest off over his head it went everywhere, up his nose yeuch.
Anyway hope he feels better soon. S x

TallKatie - I have finally found someone else who says gipped my OH thinks i'm weird for saying it!!

we were told dry food stuffs, and water (or diarolyte) for most of his drinks, but with gabe being young i'd say ttry him with an oz of milk or so every couple of hours to try and get something to stay down.
Hope he clears it faster than Ollie, not a pleasant experience.
