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.

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. |

acky sorry - after re reading my first post i mistakinly said she was not holding down liquidlites when I meant she IS |
Chris,
Goto parents.com they have a message forum and have some forums that have doctors that answer your questions. You will get alot better response than some of the idiots that are giving you crap here. |

Youc an make yoru own pedialite.
If you have concentrated unsweetened roange juice with no pulp water it down, instead of 3 cans of water use 4, and add a teaspoon of salt to the micture. The virus will work itself through, just keep her hydrated and back off the proteins for 12 hours. |

Dude this is an easy one. She is lactose intolerant. My baby had the same problem at around 8 months. She just could not hold it down that long. Get her on the baby soy formula and she should be fine!!! :thumbsup

also glad she aint shittin everywhere no more :) |

I had the wifey sew a crap load of old towels together for her to sleep on lol |

10 hour waits at the ER, high insurance costs and large DR fees are a result of people who abuse the system and race in when they've got a hangnail. Simmer down! I believe the whole purpose of this thread was that there was a 12 hour wait at the ER, and the clinic would be open by then... so he wanted more ideas on what he could do until then. |

Do you know how many peopel call the hostpital ina day about baby problems like this? They have no more patience for these cases. I personally think he did no wrong, but who I am I to say, only a father of a 15 month old who rarely sees the inside of a hospital let alone a doctor's office because I already know how to treat my son and if I don't, I talk to real parents, not doctors who are so immune to the urgency that they make you wait in a room for 3 hours only to send you home with a "he's fine". if teh situation was life threatening, yes, a doctor would be the first contact. You have NO right to question his parenting. That's downright rude and uncalled for. This guy loves his daughter with all his heart and I have talked to him on many occasions of desperation. He's good people. |
One question... unless you're in the middle of nowhere surely there's more than one hospital with an emergency department? I live on the outer fringes of suburbia but there are at least 4 hospitals with ERs within 30 mins drive from here.
Then again maybe things are diff where you are... around here we can go to a public hospital and usually be seen in under 2 hours (often <30 mins), at no cost. |
If you have to wait 10 hours then it's not a fucking Emergency !

I used to live in Killeen, I know there is a hospital over there about 3 miles outside of the army gate. There is also a great one in Temple.
Diarrhea is nothing to freak out about right away unless the baby appears to be in extreme duress. IF she behaves normally in every other manner, I would wait until Monday morning and take her to the doctor if I were you. However, if there are other symptoms involved or if you just have that "parental gut feeling" something is really wrong, take her to the ER. Usually, a parent's gut feeling is the right one |
wow, i thought since you guys had such a better health care system 14 hour wait? no one even waits that long in emergency in canada where everyone claims we are so backed up and should take on the US model.
anyways, i'd say go to the ER but i am also sure there are other places you can ask for advice. here in canada we have this thing called 'tele-health' 24 hour free hotline for all your health concerns. maybe there is something like that in the states. |
As long as she is peeing every 4 hours or so you do not have to worry about dehydration.

You wanna know something? I suspect a lot of this argument stemmed from the typo you admitted you made in your first post. Personally I would have flamed the arse off you if your kid WASNT holding down liquids and you were asking advice on GFY. The fact that he/she is holding liquids down does make it less of an emergency and not really necessary to go steaming up the hospital.
All these "I wont promote your program" and "You are on my ignore list" type posts (not to mention any antagonistic trolls) are IMO a result of an errant "isnt" in the first post. |
glad to see you got it under control.. i have 2 girls under 3 yrs and it can be damn scary when stuff like that happens..
i'm lucky here in australia with health cover .. about $170/month (covers entire family) we get into the er in a private hospital in about 5 min regardless of how trivial it may seem on the surface, if one of the kids has to go in it's usually straight through to a dr, public hospital is about 15min-1hr depending on the queue. to the idiots: it may surpise you but many people on this board actually have kids themselves AND are willing to give fellow posters a hand when they're in need. |
glad she is doing better chris..
