101.4

This is the part I didn't want to experience. This is the reason I wanted to be able to still nurse through the winter. This is what I thought I could prevent if I was careful.
Yesterday the coughing began, then at 7pm, the crying began. Jackson cried every half hour or so. This made for a very lovely nights sleep - or not! This morning around 7:30am I took his temperature (last night it was normal) and it was 100.4. Then around 8am it reached 101.4. I had him in a cool bath, goosebumps and all, and then put him in a onesie. I quickly got dressed and off we were to see Dr. Melman.
Melman said that Jackson has an ear infection in his right ear. The fever should go away in 24-48 hours. So for now, Jackson is living on anti-biotics and Tylenol. Poor baby. He wakes up so often and he drowns his face in tears - so he looks like he got beat up pretty good!!
So sad! And Jena, two sick babies at once - with each step I experience, I learn how amazing you are!
