Cocxsackie

[The Foozzler]

Tyler saw the pedi today. He has coxsackie (hand, foot, mouth). I am in a better pace because child care is taken care of for the week. FIL is helping out again tomorrow and the. I had already taken off Thursday and Friday for Rosh Hashanah. Hopefully Tyler will be good to go back to school by Monday!

Poor little guy has a mouth full of sores and doesn't want to eat or drink without crying. I am heading out to eat a variety of Popsicles. Any other soothing food suggestions?

Feel better Tyler!

[imimahoney]

Awww, poor little guy. I hope he gets better soon. I assume he won't eat applesauce or other fruit purees?

[cat19]

Poor guy! Ice cream/yogurt maybe?

Poor Tyler! Hope he gets over it quickly.

[jenbelle]

Ugh, I'm so sorry!!! I don't have any food suggestions, just wishing you good luck!!!

We are in the same boat - poor babies!

[ruby412]

Oh no! Feel better, Tyler!

Poor kiddo!

I do keep giggling at the subject though. Apparently, I'm a 10 year old boy.

[spaghetticat]

Aww, poor guy. I'm glad you have the childcare figured out, though.

About how long was she sick? Pedi said 3-5 days, but google said longer. Today is day 3 with a fever.

we already canceled our Rosh Hashanah plans with my family tomorrow a d told H's family we are probably missing Thursday night also.

A just had this too, it's so miserable!! All she would eat was cold yogurt, some ice cream, and popsicles every now and then. We alternated tylenol and motrin every three hours. Most of her sores were outside her mouth, but I read when I was desperately looking up remedies that you could swap the inside of his mouth with Mylanta or Maalox and that can helps too. Poor sweet, Tyler, and poor you.

We had 3 days of fever, 4 or 5 days with sores, but 2 days into the sores, she got a LOT better and her appetite picked up again and she ate some regular food. Sending healthy vibes your way; you need a break!

I think she was diagnosed around day 3 as well and was better 2 days later. So hopefully he's on the mend.. You might make it Thursday!

With daycare babies, its inevitable that they will get this at least once. It's soooooo contagious so wash your hands often!

I'm dreading the day Marisa gets this.

[pippilongstocking]

Poor Tyler! Preston ate a lot of pouches when he had it. I hope he feels better soon.

This is the time of year. It is most common in late summer early fall here.

Yup. I feel like I've been hit by a very large truck.
