1st Ear Infection!!

Well, today is day 3 of you having a fever and I think day 4 of Dr. Warner not seeing you!!!!! Daddy and I have called the doctor at least 1x per day since Monday to see what's wrong with you, but she keeps telling us to keep you hydrated and give you Tylenol. HOWEVER; today was different. This morning around 2:00am, you woke up screaming and didn't really stop. Luckily, daddy got up with you each time because I had to go to work this morning. Throughout the day, daddy said that you were playing and seemed to be doing better. When I got home, around 1:30pm, you had been sleeping for about 20 minutes. You didn't wake up until about 4:00pm. When I went to change your diaper, I noticed a really blotchy rash around your diaper area (lower tummy, outer and inner thighs). I immediately called Dr. Warner and FINALLY she said come on in!!! When I got you there, you had a fever of 104.7!!!!!!!!!!!!! Clearly, I need a new and better thermometor!!! She also said you had an ear infection in your right ear. :( Poor thing. We got a prescription for Amoxicilin. She also told me to give you Motrin instead of Tylenol because it lasts longer.

I gave you your first dose of both around 7:00pm tonight. You have been sleeping since about 8:00pm, but you have woken up a few times crying. You have fallen back to sleep almost immediately, though. Hopefully you're able to sleep tonight. You're usually such a sound sleeper, so I know you don't feel well.

Sleep well!!!!!!!!
