Vet Time for Carli...

Sunday, January 6, 2008

We had a bit of scare about our 'little' Carli. She has had 'GI distress' for a few days. On Friday, she looked a bit bloated. However, she was still eating and acting normal. I was a scared mom, so I called the vet and had her checked out on Saturday. It worked out because she needed her shots anyhow. So, the vet decided to let me know that my baby girl was pretty much ok - at least she seemed ok. Diarrhea is something that is not uncommon and we need to watch her for a week or so. Try and see if she needs to change her food to something with more fiber and give her yogurt. Lucky baby!!



The most interesting part is that she is not bloated probably...she gained about 5 pounds. I guess that means that she is chubby instead. Not sure that is better. As you can see, she is taking it easy on the couch after her shots and the stress of seeing the doctor. She is also having the shivers off and on for the last few days. I hope that the yogurt, carrots and relaxing fix her belly.
