Jake's first week of day care didn't go so well. When I picked him up on Wednesday I could tell he wasn't feeling well. He spent Wednesday night trying to figure out how to breathe through his mouth as he was congested. It was so sad. We went ahead and took him on Thursday and they informed me when I picked him up that he had been fussy all day and not eating well. We woke up Friday morning and the poor little guy had a fever of 101.7. We got in to see the doctor first thing. They couldn't figure out why his temp was so high, so they did blood work. They wanted to rule out pneumonia. That was awful. I almost cried when they stuck him with that needle. They had to have an extra person hold his arm still. Poor little guy. They asked us to wait in the waiting area for the results. He made every other baby in the waiting room cry. I felt so bad. Luckily, it wasn't pneumonia, just a cold. Of course, they won't give babies his age anything except Tylenol...so we loaded him up every 4 hours. The fever finally broke Saturday and he was much happier.
It's nice to know I pay to get my child sick. Day care rocks! Ugh!!
