If I recall the difference in Gatorade is nothin more then the use of distilled water in Pedialyte, which is more sterilized and the different sugar source. The fructose is the most digestable of the three sugar types but also the most expensive for production.

The Doctors thoughts were that if nothing more for symptoms comes up here shortly that it was probably more something you ate that is not agreeing with her and if she's holding the water down now that just points towards that even more.

Almost 2 years old now though, that kids spose to be eatin steak not not milk. Your raisin a hell raiser there, not Veal.

DO NOT feed that child Gatorade. An infants body cant process it and will get overloaded on electrolytes. I made that mistake once and got a thorough *** chewing from the doctor after we had to rush my little one to the ER.

when i get sick, which is a rarity.....i get sick bad, i cure most of my small stuff with no sleep and a 1/2 a bottle of the dollar store brand dayquil......stay up all night setting in front of a hot electric heater works great for me, especially about the time i start zoning out cause of no sleep and all the dayquil, then the fever breaks, plus i take 9 or 10 amoxicillin i got for our dogs a few years ago......sounds horrible but it works for me.....

for the bad stuff i just try and get the stuff out, i drink ALOT of water, about 1 1/2 to 2 gallons of water a day and stay under a electric blanket with a comforter over top of it and just sweat horribly, i alternate between theraflu mixed with warm water and straight cold water, usually drink 3 or 4 packets of theraflu then pass out for several hours, plus more of those wonderful amoxicillin, tylenol fever reducer is usually mixed in somewhere too........

yeah my self medication is horrible but it works.......no one should ever try what i do.....





PS...i hope Lexi is feeling much better now.....it always sucks to see a baby sick.....but she needs to get off the tit or she wont be as developed as she should be......my cousin did that with her boy and he is seriously under developed and has teeth problems.....
