the one where I don't know how you moms do it

Latte is really sick. It started at about 2 am Sunday morning. It was so bad that I had to clean her bed and give her a bath. Then again at 3. Then about 4:30. And then I couldn't go back to bed. She seemed fine for a while with a few spaced out episodes. Last night was fine. Then this morning she has thrown up at least 10 times. I don't know how there can possibly be anything left in her little system! She's done so much that my carpet cleaner bottle is empty and I'm almost out of paper towels and all my rags need to be washed (again). I feel so bad for her and so frustrated with all the cleaning and nastiness. I have no idea how you moms out there handle this stuff with little humans.

Cheers: to all my young mom friends who handle projectile vomiting, etc. on a daily basis

Jeers: to the prospect of getting a sick dirty dog to the vet this morning

Just like you are doing, you do what you have to! I'm glad little Latte is doing better. Bless her heart!

Poor Latte! Way to take good care of her :) That's just how it works. You know they can't take care of themselves so you have to help.
