Maya was on strike
Sorry for the
slow blogging, but it was Maya’s fault. She decided to go on a hunger
strike for the last 48+ hours, refusing to eat. It was quite an ordeal,
brought on by a very sore throat and a very stuffy little nose. To get
her to eat, we had to pump her full of Motrin and Tylenol, and wash her
little nose with saline to unblock it (sooo unhappy about this). Then we
had to *battle* to get any food in her at all. Normally our Maya loves
food, but she went 24 hours with nothing, and then the next 24 hours
with not very much at all. It was pretty icky for all of us.
Most horribly–Maya temporarily went from baby jumbo jet size to baby commuter jet size! But she is almost back in shape for flight. She has been quite happy to eat the last 12 hours, and is full of gummy grins again. Yay!!
