This story also makes me feel like less of a freak about hand sanitizer and staying away from crowds with little ones. I have a six month old who caught something but luckily she is older and it wasn't as bad so it didn't need much more than a little suctioning--which is bad enough! Hope you and your little family heal quickly and the memories fade...Anneliesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03670002900625092259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7613688387765487017.post-88931253132974967542011-02-24T23:16:13.289-07:002011-02-24T23:16:13.289-07:00So sorry to hear this about your cute little Ollie...So sorry to hear this about your cute little Ollie, but I'm so glad you're all doing better!sa-rahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14401587451967513166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7613688387765487017.post-19338066090450007882011-02-23T16:15:19.078-07:002011-02-23T16:15:19.078-07:00Crying as I read this.

I am a Purell pushing stay at home all the time MOM to a newborn that had some horrible testing (nothing like all of yours) today as well!! I have cried all morning over her 3 nurses trying to Cath her and not stopping them sooner as I have never seen her cry so horribly. I was feeling really awful and yucky about it. Replaying it all in my head all day. It was nice to cry with a complete stranger!! I am glad to know I am not the only one that just can't control everything no matter how hard we try. Thanks for posting it!! Somehow it made my day a little easier! :) Hang in there...Just In My Spare Timehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09853449827746207438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7613688387765487017.post-87844430136870235822011-02-18T10:34:33.055-07:002011-02-18T10:34:33.055-07:00Thank you everyone for all of your well-wishes and...Thank you everyone for all of your well-wishes and concern. I hope I haven't terrified everyone with a small baby. <br /><br />And Alissa...as my friend you can feel sorry Ollie had to go through that, but as my pediatrician I count on your objectivity to make sure he is safe, so no grief allowed or necessary;). Anyway...as a mother who gave birth to your own baby that same day, you are off the hook on all accounts! (although I think if you'd seen him you'd probably have sent him to the ER too...he looked pretty bad.)Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03646170547184240000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7613688387765487017.post-85119741592911852842011-02-18T10:08:33.145-07:002011-02-18T10:08:33.145-07:00oh, i'm so sorry. i hated to imagine you guys...oh, i'm so sorry. i hated to imagine you guys going through all that. hope you all stay well for a long, long time. <br />also, you and trav make beautiful, darling, perfect, edible babies. i think you should have a dozen. at least :)<br /><br />xoEmily Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06762557597902517519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7613688387765487017.post-26924231981507848642011-02-18T08:21:05.824-07:002011-02-18T08:21:05.824-07:00and she thinks that you having guilt over it is ri...and she thinks that you having guilt over it is ridiculous. kids get sick. that's all there is to it. we protect them as much as we can, but at some point life is life and sick happens. so don't waste your energy on guilt!

Tears welled up in my eyes reading that, really I don't know who that would have been worse for, him having to go through it, or you having to watch him go through it. Such a hard thing. It will make me be more careful when our next one is born, I guess we were just lucky with our first. I hope you can let the guilt go.Margrethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09836427330662149705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7613688387765487017.post-58653179096035701862011-02-17T18:23:12.696-07:002011-02-17T18:23:12.696-07:00Danielle!
