Sick Baby :(

My son was sick yesterday, to the point we took him to urgent care. Luckily, it is not RSV or croup regular seasonal flu. Still waiting to hear on what it is from the swabs they took. His fever had gotten to one point up to 102.2 and started giving him the baby Tylenol. It finally broke last night while he slept.

Anytime your child feels warm to touch, or more so warmer than normal, check his temperature. Another sign is if he/she is not acting like themselves. Since my son normally sleeps through the night that was a sign to me that he was really not feeling well when he woke up multiple times in one night. Another sign was that he normally likes to play with us a little bit each night before bed. He wouldn't even act interested in playing 2 nights in a row. He didn't scream in his carseat like normal either. He just kind of sat there looking around, with a pititful "why aren't you holding me?" look on his face. It was as if he didn't have the energy to cry.

He is much better today after sleeping well last night, and actually played again with us last night! He even slept through the storms and power outage we had last night for about 10 minutes.
