Well I’ve spent an exciting 2 weeks with Anthony having a stomach virus or maybe even the flu. Unfortunately at that age group they can’t tell you exactly what is happening so it’s a guess by us and the pediatrician. I loaded my darling up with unflavored Pedialyte and light-colored Gatorade in hold off dehydration. I tried giving him tea and warm water to settle his stomach but he wouldn’t drink it. Luckily there was no vomiting but we had plenty of diarrhea and a low-grade fever. Of course, half way through him getting sick I got the virus and I got the vomiting variation. Ugh! Mine went away in approximately 36 hrs thank god and I felt good as new afterwards.
