Yesterday was by far the worst day of my journey through motherhood..
Yesterday started as a normal day, everything was FINE. It all changed within a few seconds, my son vomited his soul out on me then went completely limp and unresponsive.
Fast forward to the hospital where my baby was stripped down naked, wrapped in a sheet while I had to hold him down as he screamed "mama mama NO" while getting an IV catheter in his arm.
My son hasn't had more than the sniffles in his short life. Seeing him ill made me lose my mind. My anxiety was so high I kept falling over from numbness in my ankles and feet so I couldn't carry or hold my son.
Hug your little ones extra tight for me tonight please. Although it was nothing very serious, in the moment I had no idea what was happening and the thought of anything ever happening to my child kills me. I take our health for granted too much too often....

Did they say what made him have an episode like that?

@junesmommy_15 he has a double ear infection and it hit him all at once. He's never been sick before. We've been spending time with friends that have kids and are notorious for virus spreading, but silly me thought since I breastfeed my baby will never get sick! Ha! What a joke!! Kids get sick, it's inevitable. He became lethargic and pale from dehydration

Oh yeah that will do it. My son got sick for his first time at 11 months 3 days after going to a preschool.

Glad he's much better.

@junesmommy_15 Makes me want to put my son in a bubble! But kids have to be kids and get rough and dirty. It's a part of life.

I know what you mean.
