yeah, been there, survived that! You do what you have to do and before you know it, you look back and wonder where the heck the years went! When Kevin was little, I used a sitter one summer because I had to work days. I used to drop him off and he would stand at the door and cry "don't go mommy. don't go" I would cry all the way to work. Then when I would call the sitter she would tell me that before I even pulled out of the driveway he would take off to play with the other kids. When I picked him up in the evening he would cry that he didn't want to leave the sitter! That kid just loved to make me feel guilty!

I hate when that boy cries, he has me wrapped around his little fingers!
We'll he was up at 3am this morning, screaming his head off. Took me an hour to rock him back to bed.. Gave him a dose of benedryl, the pox don't look to bad today, put some baby powder on him before sending him nana's house. Hopefully he takes a nice nap for her this afternoon, the poor kid was so tired yesterday he was falling asleep eating his dinner.

I feel for you. You're such a good Mommy! Kiss Micah for me please.

I hope he has a better night.

That sucks! They gave him the vacine to prevent chicken pox and it ended up giving it to him anyway! The good news is that you don't have to deal with that again. Chicken pox is hard no matter what age you are!!!

Same thing last night, got up around 3:30 screaming agian. walked him around for about an hour and put on some cartoons, and he was fine, oh i need some sleep.. Hubby was no help he wouldn't calm down for him, he wanted his mommy!
So i just stayed up with him... Hope tonight is better.
Just think he has to get one more of these shots! Dear Lord !!...

Sorry you're having such a hard time. Chicken Pox must be bad where you live. People don't think it's a big deal here. Most never even get the vaccine. I remember Ricky woke up one morning all broke out, but didn't have any problems with it at all. Didn't even itch very bad.

My Mom did get the Shingles a few years back. Very painful for her.

Janet, he got the chicken pox's from the vaccine. It stinks they have to get all these stupid vaccines or they will Not let them in school or daycare.. my son don't go to daycare but still they force you into getting all these vaccines, and i don't think it's fair!

Ok call me stupid. So if he got the shot. was it the shot that gave your child the chicken poxs. All three of my kids have had them. I never did get them. But my
brother got them when he was 30. Don't know why I never got them. I hope it works out that your hubby doesn't get them. I remember when my kids had them i just kept waiting tosee when i would get them but didn't Thank goodness.
I'll keep you all in my prayers.

Poor guy - I hope he's feeling better soon!!

Micah is doing much better, the Aveeno worked wonders last night, i put him in the tub for 1/2 hour just playing and pooring the water all over him, he is down to benedryl once a day at bedtime, i told the doctor it's took much for him all he does is sleep, hes all doped up, i don't like him like that...He's been falling asleep eating dinner! The rash seemed much better after his bath last night, sat and sun. i'm going to try and give him three baths a day and just let him run around in his diaper. and put baby powder on him before he goes to bed. He is eating much better and still drinking alot . But that's good.
Just so glad it is Friday, maybe i can catch up on some sleep this weekend.
