Lillie had a rough day yesterday. I held her while I typed my blog with one hand last night. She is napping now, so I thought I would do an update.
Lillie just looked bad when I picked her up from Daycare on Friday. As soon as I touched her I could tell she had a fever. I called her ped. and they got her in right away. Chris had taken her to doctor on Wednesday and she had a cold. She seemed better on Thursday. Friday she just went down hill. All of the drainage settled in her ear causing an infection. Dr. Dooley got her started on an antibiotic and tylenol. I started that as soon as I got home. Lillie seemed like she was starving (good sign) but she couldn't keep anything down. She was throwing up her food and medicine. Chris called Bill and he suggested Pedilyte. We started her on that last night and it worked. We had to pace her, she wanted to eat it all and fast! She slept pretty well last night despite the way she felt. THis morning she sounded awful, but didn't have a fever. Now she is resting again and seems to be doing better. We have her back on formula, but only a little bit at a time. So far she has kept it down. Lets hope she just keeps feeling better. HEr doctor said she should be better by Monday. If not, we will take her back in the doctor. Until then we just hold her and love on her. She just wants her mommy and poppy to take care of her. I hate to see her sick, but she sure is sweet and snuggly.
