Day 1, hour 3 - no more progress

Here's where the sickness is kicking in, I think.  My boy hasn't peed again since the first time this morning.  I'm trying to get him to drink tons of water so that he'll have to go more frequently but he's just not interested in either eating or drinking right now.  Meh.  We'll see what I can do to coerce him into it.

UPDATE:
I ended up going to a Mickey Mouse sippy cup.  He loves those things.  We don't use sippy cups at our house.  If we're going out somewhere, we use straw cups but we never ever use sippy cups.  I read somewhere that they can cause speech problems so we just phased them out as early as we could.  He loves them, though.  LOVES them.  He steals Brook's and Carter's every opportunity he gets.  So, I thought this might work. Turns out, it does.  Why does water taste different out of a sippy cup than a regular one?  I don't know.  But it got him to drink so no complaints here.  I might even have Matt get some juice while he's out.  Gasp!  Juice?!  In our house?  Imagine!  But if it gets this boy drinking, why not?  Desperate times calls for desperate measures.
