Maggie had a rough week.

Tuesday night I was at home w/the twins by myself during their most irritable time. I had them in their bumbo seats on the kitchen table while I was collecting stuff for their baths. I was right there but Maggie still managed to throw herself out of her seat, off of the table and onto the floor landing on the top of her head. She screamed hysterically for about 2 minutes. I was as upset as her trying to see where she was hurt. She was red all over from crying so I couldn't see anything until she calmed down. The whole top of her head was red but no knots or bruising. Other than her usual evening time before bed irritability she seemed fine. She did take a bottle before bed and slept all night but she woke up before 7. I plugged her paci in and didn't hear anything else from her until 10 a.m.!!!!!!! I am starting to get worried at this point. When I go in her room to get her the stench almost gagged me....she had a major blow-out!!! Change all the bedding and give her a bath kind of blow-out. And air freshener galore for the whole upstairs portion of the house!!! She took about 3 ozs. of formula and then ate rice cereal and bananas. About 1/2 hour later she seemed lethargic and was whiny, just not herself at all. I tried laying her down and she acted like she was going right to sleep but started this moaning humming thing. You know like kids do when they are sick. She was restless and I decided to try and rock her. She was obviously sleepy but couldn't relax. She had her eyes closed but still doing the humming thing. So I was trying to decide whether to call the doc or not when she vomited all over the both of us. I cleaned us up and called the doc and they said they didn't want to take any chances with a possible head injury and that I should bring her in. While they were asking me questions about her she started vomiting LOTS, and LOTS, and the nurse said to just bring her on in. She was so pale that even her lips had no color. O.K. I am getting pretty upset about this time thinking that I have given my kid a concussion. She fell asleep on the way but was still doing the humming thing. When we got into the office she did have more color and as soon as we went in she had smiles for everyone!!! Little turkey!! She seemed fine. The doc checked her out really thoroughly and said that he didn't see enough to warrant a CT scan and suspected that maybe she had a stomach virus or ate something that did not agree with her. The last week or so they have been eating lots more table food because Nattie is refusing baby food, so it could have been something her little tummy just couldn't handle yet. I was praying it wasn't a virus because her and Nattie trade paci's and bottle's all the time. That means she would end up with it too. The doc put her on a lactose free formula and said to feed her bland things for a few days and no dairy products and check back if she gets worse or no better. She is much better thank goodness. I think it may have been something she ate. Nattie didn't get it, again thank goodness. I am still being careful about what I feed her and have started buying the Gerber Graduates instead of so much table food. Nattie will eat those. Man it's tough to know what to feed teethless babies that refuse baby food!!!
I swear I have managed to let these 2 get hurt more times already than I did my other 2 in the first 5 years of their lives and they aren't even crawling yet!!!! I better get them helmets and bodyarmor!!! I don't know if I am losing my touch or it's just because there are two of them and it's harder to keep my eyes on them both constantly!
Whew!! What a week!
