Sick Baby



Around 2:30 am on Wednesday morning, I woke to feed Pryce & was really hot. Turned out I had a fever of 101.3. Luke and Pryce headed for the guest room, I took Tylenol & headed back to bed. The next morning I didn't have fever and felt fine, so I went ahead to work for a meeting that morning. I left after the meeting & went to the doctor. Tested negative for flu, and left with a prescription for some antibiotics to treat a viral infection. Pryce went to my mom's on Wednesday & Thursday, and he and Luke slept in the guest room both nights. Since I didn't have a fever on Thursday, things were back to normal. On 5:00 am Friday morning, Luke woke and discovered Pryce was burning up. He had a 101.3 fever. Mom and I took Pryce to the pediatrician's office at 10:30 (fever still high) where he tested positive for H1N1. We just couldn't believe it!!! For a 5 month old that doesn't go to daycare, is rarely out and about, and we're always so conscious of washing hands, etc. We sure could use some prayers!!!! Pryce hasn't had a fever since around 8:30pm Friday night. He's such a good baby.....smiling even when he's sick! We're praying he continues to make a speedy recovery!

  1. Bless his little heart! But that's great that he hasn't had fever since Friday! Sounds like he's a healthy fella who will bounce back quickly. Take care and feel better.
