31 for 21 Day 16

(I told Addy to say "cheese", she smiled and signed "cheese"! check out her toes, how cute are they?)

This child of mine amazes me. She has this horrible infection and she hasn't complained a bit. She is having horrible gas, by the sounds of it has got to be painful. Every once in awhile she will whine a bit after she passes gas but nothing major. You can feel her tummy rumble and constrict with gas and she just tolerates it. I do not know why she has this again. She hasn't been on antibiotics recently and hasn't been in the hospital which are common culprits. Since it's a weekend obviously we have to wait to talk to her doc until Monday. The first course of treatment is Flagyl. In the spring when she had C-diff she had two rounds of Flagyl with no improvement so she had to have Vancomycin. That did kick it but it's a pretty strong antibiotic. I hate that for her. We've also been unable to find a probiotic that she isn't allergic to. I wish we could I think that would really help her tummy issues. Flagyl is started and she will get 3/4 does in today. We usually don't see a lot of improvement in her stools right away so she's going to have a raw little bottom. It does help that she is potty training and goes in the potty often, but she still gets irritated. Hopefully we will stay hydrated and avoid a hospital stay, we did last time so praying hard here! Addy's birthday is Monday and she won't be able to go to school to celebrate with her friends :( maybe by Wednesday she will be cleared to go, guess we'll just wait and see.
