Sick Baby

So Monday night Abbie Mae had a stuffy nose, no biggie.  Tuesday night she coughed a few times.  Wednesday she coughed a little bit more.  Thursday afternoon she developed a fever. The fever progressively got worse.  It got up to 102.3 that night.  I called the after hours hotline at her doctors, and they said to take her to the ER.  The ER said she had an upper respiratory infection. Yesterday was worse!  She was not herself.  She did not want to eat.  She usually eats 36 ounces of milk and only ate about 16 ounces.  Her fever got up to 103.4, then 103.8, talk about a mommy panicking.  I called the after hours place again, and they told me not to worry, unless it doesn't go down after Tylenol or if it gets to 105. Can you imagine????  Today she still has a slight fever, but much more herself!  She's "talking" and playing.  I am so happy, but she's not completely better yet.  A sick baby is the worse thing for a mommy to have to deal with!
