The waiting game......

My poor little girl woke up this morning in the worst pain I have ever seen her in! She was hunched over on the floor crying saying, "Mommy it hurts!" and grabbing at her belly. Through out the day she was eating and drinking but still in pain. As all of you know my child is very well known to getting sick at least once a month. At first I thought that was the case but after no vomiting and eating I knew it couldn't be that. After so long I was convinced that she was just constipated. (sorry for all you people that get grossed out by TMI) so I did the stufff you would if that was the case... Then I noticed she had blood in her stool. Thats when I started to get nervous!! I made Aaron call up at the U and they suggested we see someone. You would never think a child would be so excited to see a Doctor, but Rylee sure was! As soon as we told her we were going to the Doctor she said "lets get in the car." That tells you how much pain she was in!! They did a stool test and it came back positive for blood ( we weren't 100% sure at first if it was blood cause she had eaten red foods) When I heard that my heart sank!! The doctor said it could be colitis, appendicitis or food allergies. The two things that made her believe its not colitis or appendicitis is cause she wasn't running a fever and you could still put pressure on her belly. If the pain doesn't get better by tomorrow we have to take her right back in. If she gets a fever its straight to the ER
Now we play the waiting game....... I am praying it gets better by tomorrow cause most likely then its just a food allergy. My heart hurts for my baby:( I wish I could just take that pain from her. The sad thing is there is nothing we can give her to make her feel better. Its just cuddles and hugs for now. Then lots of food allergy test to find this nasty culprit!! This whole situation could be minor but to me my little girl is in pain and hurting and I cant do anything about it so its major to me either way. Moms out there know what I am talking about:)
