Lucas is sick!

Since lunchtime yesterday he has vomited most of his meals but not his milk feeds (did vomit one milk feed but it is mostly solids). He only manages 2 spoonfuls before he vomits. It's is weird. Been to the doctor and told just to keep him hydrated and said to stick ot bfing but if I give a bottle ot water it down. Does anyone know how much I should be watering it down? I can't find any info!

    Ahh my thoughts and hugs go out to you. Isabelle and I have both just had a diarrhoea and vomiting bug. It has taken about a week fro Isabelle to recover. Her appetite is still not what it was, but I think she has more teeth coming.
    It really hit home to me that I was on my own now. As you know my oh left the week before Christmas. He was meant to be looking after Isabelle the day I got sent hme sick from work and he refused to have her as he did not want to get it, so I had to look after the both of us.
    Hope you both get well soon. Isabelle had boiled water and some rice cakes for a few days only.

    That must have been hard Mary. Imagine not taking his own daughter! Whqat would he have done if he still lived with you? Grr! I experienced what it was like being sick and trying to look after Lucas and I had to phone my mum for help coz I couldn't do it. Hats off to you if you managed it on your own.
