Poor little bug is sick. She had a fever all day yesterday and felt crummy, getting up to 104.4 in the evening, but with no obvious symptoms. Fortunately Tylenol and lukewarm baths have been controlling the fever well. We brought her into the doctor's office this morning (104.7 this morning, eek) and they think she probably caught "the virus that's been going around". Her little throat is all red and probably sore. If it's indeed that virus, then the fever will slowly taper off over the next 48 hours and she'll get a mild runny nose and cough. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it's just that and she won't have to be poked and prodded further.
Fevers that high freak me out. But I was out with PEPS moms last night and they've all been through high fevers with their kids and had good advice to dispense. It made me feel a little better, but I was still worried about my little girl. Anyway, please cross your fingers with me that it's just a run-of-the-mill virus and she gets better quickly. I just hate seeing her feel so awful, poor thing.

Luca and I are crossing fingers for you. It is so miserable to see one's baby so sick, I absolutely hate it. But I've been thinking of you all day, and hope this bug passes quickly for you all! Don't forget to take care of yourself too...
Thanks, Christina. I hope it passes quickly too. She's pretty miserable :(
