Saturday morning Adam woke up so sick. Not his stomach; can't be sure what...I just know the poor kid was crying non-stop and didn't even have the energy to stand up. He laid on me watching Shrek, whimpering and crying on and off...his Daddy got him a bottle and he just..hugged it for a while until I offered it to him and he drank it here and there. I put him back for a nap an hour later as he seemed so sleepy and he would fall asleep and whimper every few minutes...I tried to give him a bath because he felt so sweaty, but he sat there and cried in his bubbles, something he usually loves so much...he only calmed down a little when I picked him up and hugged him. This was not like Adam. He needed to be hugged all morning and would cry on and off. Finally got him to walk as I wanted to be sure it wasn't his legs hurting him, pressed on his belly to make sure it wasn't there. We just knew he was in pain as he didn't even have a fever.
He was somewhat better in the evening and a lot better today, although not a hundred percent. Best guess is some sort of headache or ear ache. We were just so happy to see him feeling better. We had never seen him so sick and so sad. I'm grateful no matter how tired I am from being kept up most of the week by both my kids, that they are essentially pretty healthy.
It definitely took a toll on me this weekend to see him so sick and feel like I couldn't do anything about it...I hope he's all better when he wakes up!

Wouldn't be surprised if it was an ear ache...kids seem to get those a lot. My auntie heart breaks when I read the sad baby stories.
