Poor Ian was complaining of a stomach ache all evening Saturday, and cried and cried until he finally fell asleep. Luckily he woke up feeling fine on Sunday, but after lunch he complained again of pain in his lower left abdomen and, after he had been crying for about half an hour without stopping, we decided to get him checked out. He also told us several times that he ate a plastic dinosaur at school, but when questioned he also said his teacher watched him eat it, so we were understandably skeptical but didn't want to take any chances.
We headed to Patient First Sunday afternoon, where Ian got several exams and a stomach x-ray.
The doctor said there's nothing to worry about (no dinosaurs appeared on the x-ray), but it does seem that Ian is overly sensitive to a dairy-heavy diet so he'll have to give up his beloved yogurt smoothies.
Ian was devastated that he didn't get to play with his friend Bud this afternoon, so to make up for it Joe turned most of the living room into a "cave" and we all took turns crawling through - even Mia!
