The only thing now is he screams like a mutha when he does pee where it's sore from the catheter. It makes me cringe every time he starts to scream and squirm around. The dr. said it's normal though and that it should get better after a few days.
Uh, Lance...not exactly a walk in the park yet...man that stuff makes me uncomfortable, especially on someone who doesn't really understand....aww, little trooper!
I guess i've got lots of "fun stuff" to look forward too!
Hang tough, my bald brutha!
Yeah, there is quite a bit to "look forward to." It's crazy and just plain weird in a way...It's like after you have a child you see what everyone was telling you about before you had the child. I hope that made sense?
But seriously...the things my mom, grandmother, other parents, etc...Those things they use to tell me that I actually wasn't really listening to, are all coming back now that I have a child. I find myself constantly thinking in my head, "Oh, so this is what they were all yapping about." And then some of the time after thinking that I think, "Maybe I should have listened a little better." 
But hey, it's all good. There's no right or wrong way to do things as long as you are doing the best you can. There's definitely no instruction manual!!! And forget all those "children books."

Lance, I hope your boy is doing better now, I know what's it's like to have to hang out in the hospital with your kiddo.
PigPen, I wish your daughter a speedy recovery. I know it has to be hard taking care of a 5 year old with a broken arm.
In October of last year both of my kids were in the hospital within a month of each other. My Daughter was in for 5 days and my son was in for 3. It was a nightmare. My best friend went in as soon as my daughter got out, too. That was a terrible October/November season for me, I spent WAY to much time at the hospital. -

Being a parent does have it's good side but can really be nerve wracking at times. Can't it fellas.?....

Exactly what happened to my son, I must have caught. I spent all of Friday night puking and in and out of the bathroom. I don't think I had it as bad as him though, or at least my immune system was better because I already feel good. I just made sure I kept a bunch of liquids down and ate salt crackers all day. Now that I'm feeling better I can't wait for tomorrow. I'm gonna throw down some food baby!!! That's how I always am after being sick.
