fever, like a fire


Ever since Pipers little wheezing episode, new symptoms have slowly been added to the list. Nasty cough, congestion, and a fever. The cough and congestion started on Wednesday and hasn't let up and the fever started Thursday evening. Occasionally Tylenol will help and keep it at bay; so far it hasn't really completely gone away. Now it's almost 2am and I'm debating whether or not to take her in to be seen. Three hours from now will make 36 hours since the first dose of medication. 20 minutes from now will be one hour that the Tylenol has been trying to get its job done. 

She's completely restless next to me, clad only in a diaper, and is breathing a little quicker than normal. This chick cannot catch a break. Strep in March, an ear infection two weeks ago, and now this. If anyone happened to be curious about how the cold turkey paci removal went, it didn't. We got through about 24 hours before news of her ear infection and decided that it would be cruel. 



Fingers crossed for lower temps.
