[lover_of_the_gospel]

@alwayscurious Hugs mama. I’m so sorry you and your family had to go through that.

@alwayscurious This is so scary. Can you please update us on what ends up being the diagnosis? Prayers for you and your sweet child.

@alwayscurious you and your baby are strong!! so glad he’s doing much better!

@alwayscurious My daughter went into the hospital with RSV on her birthday in December. It’s terrible seeing them with the wires and tubes. See if someone can bring a stuffy of his he like and maybe one of his blankets too. Once all those wires come off he’s gonna be so relieved and back to himself. You did everything any parent would’ve done. Hope he gets out soon and goes home happy and so much better!

@alwayscurious I’m so sorry you and your family had to go through such a terrifying experience but so glad to hear that he’s doing better. It sounds like you trusted your gut and I don’t think that gut feeling can ever be classified as ‘overthinking’! Wishing the little one a very speedy recovery.

@alwayscurious Did they test for meningitis? Excessive tiredness and inability to wake can be a symptom of that.

 

[alwayscurious]

@rayclove i don’t know nothing about meningitis was mentioned and he’s starting to improve a lot the past 6 or so hours with his numbers rising so i’m assuming that’s a positive sign

@alwayscurious So scary, definitely don't feel like you did anything wrong. When my wife is away I'm always worried I'll miss something because she's just got that INSTINCT to feel when something is amiss with our kiddo. You gotta err on the side of caution with your little one, don't second guess yourself! Much love to you and your baby!

@alwayscurious Wow. sending hugs and love to you. it must be so hard to deal with.

you did great. don't hesitate to call ambulance. I mean, what is a 200$ bills when it can save your toddlers live.

@noddy7 The fact that there are people who have to pay for an ambulance ride is so appalling to me as a Canadian.

@alwayscurious Someone already said it above… you are an incredible
mom for taking care of your baby ASAP!

Hang in there. It will be ok. Lots of love

@alwayscurious This sounds like a nightmare. I’m so sorry, op. I can only imagine how scared you were. You handled it exactly right and now your son will be safely monitored in the hospital so you don’t have to worry about another episode for now. I think you will feel better once they get to the bottom of what’s causing his symptoms and have a treatment plan. I’m glad he’s starting to act more himself now.

@alwayscurious You did the right thing calling an ambulance. Sending so much love and praying for a quick turnaround and answers.

 

[shadabir]

@alwayscurious I think you 100% did the right thing. Any time a baby or toddler is unresponsive, I would say call an ambulance.

 

[kaisu]

@alwayscurious Well done for calling an ambulance and getting help right away. You know when something is wrong.

How did he catch sepsis?

@alwayscurious Sending you positive thoughts OP! Give yourself grace. Human beings get sick and the most that we can do is act on it the moment we find out.
