103 temp. Well, baby comes before blogging! 😉 Last Sunday, we had a massive dust storm and I attributed his runny nose and coughing to allergies to that nasty 65 mph winds. But on Wednesday, he started running a low grade fever. By Thursday, 100-102 temps. Motrin and tylenol around the clock. As a nurse, I listened to his lungs a couple times a day to be sure whatever funk he had wasn’t moving into those precious little lungs. Lungs were clear. Still eating/peeing/pooping just fine and although not acting himself, still a generally happy camper. I had held off taking him to the doctor because they can’t give him anything for a virus and I am positive that’s what he had because I ended up with it too. But on Friday, when he wouldn’t eat, and he had 103 temp, off to the doc we went. Doesn’t he look so sad at the doc office? Poor guy 🙁 Flu swab came back negative. So we have a yucky virus.
It is now Sunday and he is doing much better today. He has been fever free for nearly 24 hours. We got antibiotics to treat a very slightly red ear (to prevent an ear infection) but as far as what was causing the high temp, it is going to have to just work itself out of his system. I knew that’s what they would say at the doc, but with a temp that high, I just had to take him for peace of mind that nothing else was going on.
