Nothing hurts worse than when your baby is in pain. I used to roll my eyes when I heard people say that. Give me a break- I am not much of a softy, and sentiments make me want to gag sometimes. Something seriously happened to me when I had a baby. I am such a softy now- especially when it comes to him. All those lame things I used to roll my eyes at are so true.
Tripp has been sick since Thursday. I got a call that he was running a real high fever. I had a minor panic attack- this is the first time he has been sick! What do I do? They always say wait 24 hours before taking them in, but I was too impatient for that. Turns out he had Hand Foot and Mouth-a nasty virus that is super contagious that causes little sores in their mouths, hands, and feet. He only had them in his mouth, but bless his heart they were making my poor pitiful baby feel bad. I would have done anything or paid anything to make him feel better. Luckily, he started acting like his happy talkative self a couple days ago, but we were quarantined until yesterday. He also got a HORRIBLE diaper rash, and ironically I think that bothered him more than anything. Joey and I almost cried on many occasions because he was in pain. This is my life now- being a loving kissy smooshy softy mommy. I wouldn't trade it for anything.
But thank the Lord I am free from the quarantine. I can only do so much cleaning and watching TV. Glad things are back to normal, and my baby is smiling and talking again.
