Well, this week has been full of ups and downs! I took Carmen to day care on Monday,Wednesday and Friday just for a little play while I stayed with her. Meanwhile Jeffrey and I were horribly sick with Carmen's cold. Carmen seemed to really enjoy herself at 'school'. So, it was a good week. Then on Saturday Carmen seemed rather ill-tempered and seemed to have a bit of a tummy bug. Then I knew she was sick when she threw up copious amounts of undigested food! We still managed to go out for a walk though. Then on Sunday she still was a bit sick, but her spirits seemed OK, so we took her to the park. However, she was barely eating anything. Yesterday (Monday) she had her first real day at school (again!), but this time in with the bigger kids. She was fairly upset on and off, but they said it was nothing unusual or traumatic. She was only there for three hours. She refused most foods yesterday (you'd think this would be a clue). I took her back to school today for another morning, but as soon as I got home, I received a call from them saying she had diarrhea so bad that she needed a complete wardrobe change, and that they had taken her temperature twice with 2 different thermometers, and her temperature was only 34.5 degrees (94.1 for you Yanks), which is hypothermia! So I ran up and got her and took her to the doctor who said she has gastro. (This was all an hour and a half before I had to go back to the doctor for my anti-natal appointment!). And to top everything off, while she was at school yesterday, our car broke down, and we had to deal with getting it towed and serviced. We got the car back already, and it was just a minor fix, so that is one good thing! I'm hoping the week ahead goes better.
