In the ER with Julia, one of the questions the doctor asked us was "Is she drinking anything?" I explained that Julia had been sipping on Pedialyte all day because she wouldn't touch her usual drink of water. The doc told us that water is the worst possible thing to give kids with diarrhea/vomiting. She said that even Coke would be preferable to water because at least there is sugar in there to help replace the electrolytes and such that are being lost. We stuck with Pedialyte rather than switching to Coke :)

Wow...I didn't know that either. Good thing to remember. No Coke??? You guys are no fun. =) hehehehe.
It was good talking to you tonight...I'm sure things are going to go safely and smoothly tomorrow and you will have your healthy baby boy in your arms before you know it. =) I guess I should go ahead and say Happy Birthday little man since technically it is already the 7th! Give us a call when he makes his arrival. We will be thinking/praying for you guys!
