Good morning baby! We had a very rough night. You've been so sick this week. You fell asleep at 11 & I checked your temperature twice before I went to bed at 11:30. Both times you were about 100 degrees. At midnight I had a strong urge to get up and check you again, even though I felt a bit silly and like a big nervous mother. Your temp was up to 103! They say 104 is the temperature to take you in at so of course I wanted to keep checking you every five minutes. You just wanted to sleep without me scanning your forehead.
I made you wake up to take motrin and you were not impressed. I ended up calling the dr's after hours number while I was waiting on the motrin to kick in. Since you've been sick all week, I wasn't sure if you should go in at 103. They had been talking about doing bloodwork with you. While I was on the phone with the dr, your temp dropped to 101.4, making me feel a bit silly for calling. I checked you one last time (101.8) and headed to bed.
This morning you have no fever at all! It's the first time in 3 days! You seem miserable though. I called my mom (because that's what you do as a mom, you call your mom) and she said you're probably just wore out from fighting whatever you've had & that you're really starting to feel better but you're just tired now. Crossing my fingers she's right!
Off to go snuggle more with you! Love you!
