Now that I have a chance to sit down and really type for a minute, I can tell about what happened today. 
Last night, I was up with Noah, who was screaming bloody murder, and Bonnie, who was also screaming bloody murder...pretty much all night. 
They finally fell back asleep around 5:00, but I was awakened at about 7:00 to Bonnie crying "mommy, my tummy hurts!!" over and over.   I came out and saw Bonnie and Caleb both laying by the heater in the livingroom, and holding their tummies.  Then Noah threw up.    I decided that it was time to go to the doctor, so I got all of them ready and left for the Urgent Care center at about 8:30.   I had thought that Noah was only going to throw up that one time. I wish I had thought about that a little better, and prepared for an accident.   We were there in the waiting room for about 30 minutes, when Noah got up on my lap and all of a sudden vomited all over my lap....it was almost pure liquid, so I was soaked.  Everyone in the waiting room looked at me and was wondering what I was going to do about it. There were no towels or anything.  I started to stand up, not sure what to do next, then the secretary in the window said that I needed to fill out some papers.  As soon as she said it, Noah threw up on me a second time! 
She saw it, and brought in a throwup tub, and some papertowels.  They didn't do much to help the situation at that point. I kind of just had to walk around in throw up soaked clothes.
I tried to clean Noah as well as possible...we all sat in the waiting room for about 2 hours...Caleb fell asleep across two chairs in that time, and Bonnie kept crying that her tummy hurt and that her throat hurt.  She also laid across two chairs and tried to sleep.
We finally got in, and the doctor looked at them, took their temperature, looked in their noses, and all of that.  Then he asked if he could do a strep test really quick.  The test turned out negative for Strep or the Flu.
He decided that they had... get this... Bronchitis!
I did a double take and said, Are you absolutely sure?   He said that he felt that's what they had.
I decided that possibly he was right, because Bonnie was a little congested and has had a cough, and has also complained of a sore throat.  But does Bronchitis make you throw up over and over like a virus does?
I went to the Pharmacy, and filled the prescription for all of the stuff he had written up.    Even with the prescription card, it ended up being $100.00.      That, and the copay of $45.00 was a lot for us today.
 I got home, and took a look at the medications, and gave each child the dosage recommended.  
After only 10 minutes, Noah had thrown all of his medicine and water that he that hour had drunk.
I began to be worried about him, and tried to give him small amounts of liquid, little bit at a time, but still...every 10-30 minutes, he would throw up.  And this is still happening right now, and it's 5:50.    He has not held ANYTHING down since 7:30 this morning!  I'm so worried about him.    But I did get my mom to take him to the ER and asked her to tell the doctors that ALL the kids are feeling this way.  I hope they will have some answers.

The doctor that told me that the kids had bronchitis, gave me a medication that I decided to look up online, to see what it was and how it handled the vomiting.  Just out of curiosity.   The drugs' name is Phenergan.
Out of my amazement, the first thing I saw when I was reading the description of the drug is this:

Phenergan should not be given to a child younger than 2 years old. Phenergan can cause severe breathing problems or death in a child younger than 2. Carefully follow your doctor's instructions when giving this medicine to a child of any age.


When I read this, I was EXTREMELY angry, because the doctor knows what this drug is and what the risks are, and didn't tell me ANYTHING about it at ALL.  He wrote on the prescription card to give a teaspoon to Noah  FOUR times a day!    Why would he prescribe something to my son that could possibly seriously injure or kill him???  And not to even let me know what this drug is or what I should be careful about when using it???    I am beyond words at this point, and have lost all trust in any doctors.   This is not the first time something like this has happened.   not only in giving horrible medication, but also in giving wrong diagnosis's.   For example, 2 years ago, I had gotten Giardia from eating something undercooked, and the doctors told me I had acid reflux!   I became so ill and dehydrated from throwing up every day I almost died by the time I got a correct diagnosis! 

 Not ONLY do I believe the doctor's diagnosis is completely far out there (he didn't even take the time to even ATTEMPT to me an accurate one)... I think he should have at least given me a few pages of rules and things I should know about the drug he prescribed my one and a half year old son!   Isn't that what you generally do when you hand someone a drug?   Don't you usually get a few pages filled with the risks and benefits of the drug? 
Why am I supposed to be left in the dark about this?    How many parents out there have given their children dangerous drugs recommended by doctors who they felt knew better than them?  This is just ridiculous to me.


Ok enough of my ranting...I'm really worried about my baby, and just hope he'll be ok.    I just hope that this doctor will be able to help and get him and the other children on the mend, and soon. 
Seeing my babies heave and throw up is something I cannot stand to see.   Especially when they look at me with those sad, sad eyes, which seem to be pleading with me to do something...and I just have to stand there helpless saying "I wish I could do something to make it all better."

Anyway, hopefully i'll know something soon.
