The Monday Snapshot – Sickly St. Patty’s Day Edition

Advertisements

Well, we have spent the last 10 days watching Stella get sicker and sicker. I don’t know if it’s correlated, but she got 3 vaccination shots on Wednesday the 6th (the most she’s ever gotten at once – normally I keep it to 1-2 max), and she has basically gone downhill from there. By last Friday I got a call from daycare saying that I had to come get her because she was running a fever, so I brought her by my office quick (I work in a Family Practice medical center) and the doc checked her out and said she had an ear infection on the left side. We left with a Rx for some antibiotics, and I figured she’d perk up quickly. No such luck. By Saturday night she was a total mess, and by Sunday her fever was up to 102.2 and she was a whiny, clingy mess for most of the day. I also got a glimpse of two molars coming through on the bottom, so I think we’ve been battling the trifecta of an ear infection + teething + an upper respiratory infection. *sigh* Poor baby.

Telling Daddy about how crappy she was feeling.

At any rate, she perked up a bit late Sunday afternoon after napping for most of the day, and I was able to get a few cute pictures of her when we went outside a bit to get some fresh air. She looks good in green! 🙂
