PARENTING HELP :(:( Baby diarrhea
 

Sorry for posting this here but dont know of any other large group that i can get a question out to quick

all my family is asleep so i cant call them
my daugther who is 1 years old has had diarrhea all day long and is puking anytime she drinks milk - liquidlites - water
but will hold down soy milk .....

my doctor is not open again tell monday afternoon
what can I do ?

she seriously is going about every 30 minutes and busting out of the diaper
all over the floor
all over her crib
have done many many louds of laundry today

I am at my wits end

wtf do i do?!


also she is not running a fever

move on plz

doctor dude

You might have to take her to the emergency if she isn't keeping anything down bro. I'm not a doctor but I would to be safe if it was my child.

make sure she has lots of water, they have that pedialite at the grocery store..this is like baby gatorade, it will keep her elctolytes in check with all the fluids she is losing. Dont give her any more formula till you can get to the doctors Monday. She wont starve and it might quit all the runs she is having.

Make sure you keep an eye on her temperature and keep her hydrated as much as possible ..dehydration deaths can occur in small babies easily when they are sick like this (not trying to freak you out or anything, just be aware of it)

good luck

I would imagine she's getting extremely dehydrated, which isn't going to help much. I would call an ER and see if they think you should bring her in.

we went through the same thing last year, pedialyte didnt do shit, she wouldnt keep it down. I would go to an ER, the last thing you fuck around with is your kids.

good idea :thumbsup

why ask GFY? if you are concerned about her, take her to the ER

better safe then sorry

I find it a mixture of concern and irony that you are requesting the help of a buncha adult webmasters for your little baby...

if it's as bad as it sounds ... i would take her to the emergency room .. :2 cents:

Why? I'm willing to bet that 80% of the people over the age of 25 here at GFY have kids.

go to the store immediately and give her pedialyte. stop giving her any milk.
if she is not better by tomorrow morning, get her to the er immediately.

exactly what the persian, french, canadian guy said

she has had two bottles of pedalyte and she is holding it down
i got ahold of my dad ( who is a paramedic ) and he said that taking her to the ER will result in a 14 hour wait ( he is working toinght - er is busy ) and if i called an ambulance it would be considered non emergncy and I would get moved to the waiting room


sucks that my doc aint in tell monday
hopefully she will be over it in the morning and just a 24 hour bug

when's the last time you have been to an ER on a saturday night in a big city :helpme

doesnt matter dont take chances - also people with babies get priority usually

if she was having problems breathing or had a fever and was fussy then maybe
but puking and diarrhea is something i can wait tell the morning when I can take her to the LOCAL clinic for 250$ at 9 am

dude - trust me and others take her - $250 is nothing compared to a more serious issue - babies dont have a lot of liquid in their system to handle such dehydration - quit arguing and get on the road

Then what kind of response were you expecting with this thread?

so.. are you telling me that you have a baby, and no health insurance? :321GFY

ya no shit - get on the road you will not regret the $250

That was the case about 2 months ago. I hope he took some of the advice he was getting.

how about calling a doctor isntead of asking it on a webmaster board, dumbass.

heh. people.

stop procreating if you cant afford to support offspring. jesus.

its not fair to the kid if the parents are dumb.

what are you talking about?
I do have health insurance
the clinic that is open tommrow does not accept my insurance
my primary doctor that does accept my insurance is open on monday

If i go to the ER toinght by the time I got seen the clinic will already have been open for hours


and sly - yes I did take your advice and got insurance :)

Shut up troll and read the fucking thread

go...to...the...ER.

good insurance covers emergency room

After this is solved get the baby some heatlh insurance. It's only 4 joins a month for the basic. ($60 to $80/month)

who the fuck said I could not afford a kid? I was doing just fine without insurance
I paid for the whole pregancy without insurance
I paid for everything up to 12 months of age without insurance
I now have insurance as doctor visits come up more often


btw sly - I did consult other doctors about tubes and one doctor I found gave us some drops to do 3 times a week for a month and ever sence then - no more ear infections

I hope for the love of all that is human that dude is not still on this board right now...

yeah so your doc is off till monday, call a fucking hospital moron.

fuck you get off the thread and take your son or daughter to the emergency room.... idiot

there is a 24/7 urgentcare facility down the street.. theres about 20 of them around here. find one.

WHO THE FUCK SAID IT WAS A MONEY ISSUE? ARE YOU FUCKS READING THE THREAD?

IT IS A HUGE ASS FUCKING WAIT AT THE ER
I WONT GET ANY SOONER THAN ANYONE ELSE JUST BECAUSE IT IS A BABY
BY THE TIME I GET IN THE CLINIC THAT I CAN GO INTO IN THE MORNING WILL HAVE BEEN OPEN FOR HOURS


AND P.S. - MY INSURANCE ONLY COVERS A % OF ER VISITS


fucking idiots

if he posts in this thread i swear he is stupid - more obsessed with the opinon of gfy than taking care of what is important...... pisses me off to be honest

At least call the ER and tell them the situation, they will advise you.

dig this: his 1 y.o. kid is puking her guts out and he is here arguing with webmasters on a porn board.

bravo! :1orglaugh

dickwad - your the idiot for posting for advice on gfy on a saturday night - GO TO THE FUCKING HOSPITAL YOU IDIOT

okay
I JUST called the ER
and told the lady on the phone everything that was going on and she told me to give her pedalite and if she is not better in the morning bring her in
and i asked how long the wait was and she said a min of 10 hours

verify your selfs dickwads - (254) 699-1133

If she has stopped shitting everywhere and is taking the pedialite and keeping that down, there is probably not a huge need for the emergency room. Dont give her any more milk products..soy included.

I can't count how many times mothers/father rush their kids to emergency rooms only to get given a shot of tylenol and sent home with a $200-300 bill. meanwhile they were stuck sitting in an emergency room for hours with a crying baby while everyone in there glares at you to shut her up...its pretty stressful on the child and parent to not be in the comfort of their home when they are sick like that.

You know your daughter better than some of these bozos here, if you think she needs to go...go..if you think she can wait 10 or so hours till the clinic opens..wait...keep checking on her through out the night...maybe let her sleep in the bed with you.

ive never seen anything this dumb on gfy. sitting around TYPING ANGRY IN ALL CAPS at people telling you shit that is common sense.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

People like you that I know are around here that have exp in this is the reason why I posted
but I knew i would run into fucktards and i am stressed as is so it gave me some time to vent

i swear - no way i would promote your program - it took you an hour of aruguing on gfy to get you to call the ER... what an idiot....

hahaha ya he is an idiot... on my list of people NOT to promote

if you go thru this thread you would of read that I called my father who is a paramedic who see's this shit daily

I dont give a flying fuck you promote my program or not

wont make or break me brother

Beautiful. You should have done that the second you started arguing with people.

Never hurts to CALL the ER and just get a quick opinion. But you should get the Pedialite right away, I bet she's incredibly dehydrated.

as I stated in my oringal post that she is holding down liquidlites - that is pedalite

acky sorry - after re reading my first post
i mistakinly said she was not holding down liquidlites

when I meant she IS
