Good News! Bethany did not have the rotavirus! I think I was pulling a Michelle and being a bit over dramatic. ;)

When the nurse called back she did not seem to overly concerned and just told me to keep up with the fliuds and then put her on the BRAT diet. I think the fact that she did not have fever and had only had been sick for three days showed the nurse there was no cause for alarm. I am just not used to my kids getting sick this much. It seems like my kids are getting sick much more and they are staying sick longer than before. I was thinking about it and it might be because I breastfeed Caylee and Natalie longer than the other children. Caylee was breastfeed for 10 months and Natalie for 6 months. I have a very good immune system and I think I was able to pass that on to them through nursing. It was hard for me to nurse and got more difficult with each baby. The three little ones were not nursed much past three months. I noticed a big difference with Macy. Caylee rarely got sick and it seemed like Macy was always sick when she was a baby. I still think my kids all have pretty good immune systems but I guess I am just going to have to get used to dealing with this stuff.

By the way, I think Bethany had the flu. This weekend Asher and Serenity got it too. Serenity is finally feeling better, but I think she still feels a little weak. She is not quite as active as she is normally. I have to admit it was nice to let everything go and just sit and snuggle with her this weekend.

We were planning on taking family pictures this weekend but Asher was in so much pain there was not way we could, so hopefully we can get that done before it gets too cold. Next year Asher is planning on getting the flu shot so he doesn't have to go throught that again.
