Poor Baby

Well Camilla has officially had her first sickness. Last Sunday, she started with a low grade fever and it escalated to 104 on Monday night. It was so scary. She was very lethargic and non-responsive. We were able to get her fever back down by giving her a dose of Motrin, turning down the air and taking off her shirt. It came down to around 102 within 30 mins and she rested well the rest of the night. We went to the doctor on Tuesday morning and of course she was not running any fever at the time. The doctor said that it was just a fever virus and that it should pass in a few days. It did and she was feeling much better by Thursday. Now she has a cough and a little runny nose. She was so pitiful and whinny. You could tell she did not feel good.


I really feel for all the moms out there that have babies that are sick "all the time." I did not understand how demanding and exhausting it really was to have a sick child until this past week.
