I would feel the same way as you....
I wish I had advice, just that its normal to feel this way. Time will lessen the memory.
Ditto!
I would feel EXACTLY the same.
You should probably ask Nicole (Nferreandi) how she dealt after she expeienced her sons seizure. I bet she went through the same feelings and it probably made her more cautious but with time the fear turns into strength.
Janice, the things you posted helped me and so many other parents realize what to do in these kind of emergencys. I think you did a wonderful job and you shouldnt be so hard on yourself. It was scary. You should feel good about how you handled it, alot of women wouldnt have gotten to the ER like you did. You were alone and still were able to take care of your son in an emergency.

Re: I keep thinking I am okay with what happened the other night
aww Janice - I can't imagine what you must feel right now. Maybe it will be good for your mom to come and stay with you for a bit.

Re: I keep thinking I am okay with what happened the other night
When my daughter was 3 months she choked for some unknown reason, stopped breathing and turned blue. I thought we were losing her. She started breathing with in min went via ambulance to stay at the hospital for a couple of days. We may never know the cause which is the best case scenerio cause we surely don't want to find anything wrong.
I was automatically given an individual cpr lesson at the hospital, and when I returned home I could not imagine leaving her side. We used the angelcare montior religiously. It was aweful, but the feelings of fear have begun to fade, now 4 months later, I have already begun to relax a little again.
It is normal to be upset, paranoid or anything else you might be feeling. I think men just have a diffierent way of dealing with things. My husband often thinks he's invinsible. You will get through this in time.
I know a few people whose childen experienced a febrile fever. None of them had a repeat episode.
Feel what you do now, and feel better when you are ready.

Re: I keep thinking I am okay with what happened the other night
What you went through was very traumatic... I once saw my mom have a seizure and I WAS NOT OKAY for a little while afterwards... its a horrible picture to erase from your mind! Just know that eventually that memory will fade.. what you are going through is completely normal!

Re: I keep thinking I am okay with what happened the other night
My SIL just went through the same thing. She actually quit her job to be a SAHM since she was worrying too much!
It will get better Janice- it just happened and was terrifying! You have a right to be upset.

Re: I keep thinking I am okay with what happened the other night
I would be nervous, too. Although you did the right thing & your little one is fine, it is natural to worry about your child.

Re: I keep thinking I am okay with what happened the other night
Janice.. I think it wouldn't be normal if you didn't feel this way after what happened with Josh It's totally understandable and I KNOW for a fact I would feel exactly the way you are feeling right now if I'd gone through what you did the other night with DS

I could not agree more with this!!
 You are a great Mom, Jan

I think it is completely reasonable for you to be feeling this way. I would be surprised if you weren't feeling nervous.

Re: I keep thinking I am okay with what happened the other night
I saw the subject line of your thread and thought...
She's ok with it? I'm still not over it & I'm not the mom & wasn't there!
You have every right to still be shook up by this. Don't be hard on yourself

Re: I keep thinking I am okay with what happened the other night
I think I missed what exactly happended the other night - but I'm guessing a seizure - and it sounds to me like you handled it extremely well - This is not something you can GET over - it sounds like it was terrifyingly scary!!!!
I have to say that you are a wonderful mom (from what I've read of your posts! ) and you need to stop being so hard on yourself.
