Mac and Cheese won!

So, last night started out just a normal night! We got home from work and we feed Skyler dinner and went to the store because we need food in our house. Well, after we got home, we did our normal schedule to get Skyler ready for bed, Bath, Bottle, Bed.. at least we thought, about 3 mins after we put him to bed he started screaming like mad crazy!!! I went in there and he had throw up EVERY WHERE!! I yelled for Drew to come help me because it was just not stopped! We ran him to the tub un-dressed him and hosed him down. I proceeded to get him ready for bed again,I got him all dressed and up came some more! Back to the bath we went. Drew called the Dr.'s office to see what could be going on and the Dr said that it's either the stomach flu or that he is allergic to what we feed him for dinner. (When Skyler was a lil baby we tried to give him milk based formula and threw up every where, well the Dr said that he could be allergic to any dairy products so we did soy formula from then on out.) Well, we gave him the Gerber, Mac and Cheese for dinner not thinking that that he would be allergic to it because it was baby food. Boy, where we wrong. Well, we could not get him to stop throwing up and scream so the Dr told us to take Skyler in to Primary Children's last night. On the way up there Skyler threw up again all over himself and his car seat. We got there about 11 pm, waited for about an hour in the waiting room, asked them how much longer and they said about 2 more hours just to be seen!!! I called the on call Dr. back and told them what was going on and how long we would have to wait and he asked if Skyler was still throwing up and I said no, and some more questions. He said that we where OK to go home and just to watch him close and not to give him any dairy products any more. Skyler sleep threw the night just fine, me on the other hand was up every hour to check on him. He is still not eating very well today, but we are making sure that he is staying hydrated! He loves pedilite pops! So, it looks like Mac and cheese 1- Skyler- 0!

Poor Baby! It's going to be hard to find foods that have no dairy in them. Hope he grows out of this allergy soon!

Poor little man!! Allergies are no fun. I'm glad everyone's ok. You and Drew are real troopers; it's so rough when they’re throwing up. Dang Mac and Cheese.
