So I am 36 weeks pregnant tomorrow. I am having issues with things...and am on "moderate bed rest" whatever that means. My hubby is in his finals week of school and is stressed out. and my lil nugget Petyl is going to be 2 next Friday. Things are CRAZY! but i have more craziness to add.
Last night Miss P spiked a lil fever..it was 9pm and Trustan noticed her hotness so we checked and sure enough she was at 102. I called the pediatrician on call and they told me the normal stuff..give her some Tylenol(GENERIC SINCE THEY ALL GOT RECALLED)...check on her every few hours..lots of fluids whatever. She had no other symptoms besides a slight runny nose. She feel asleep around 9:45 in our bed I got the room all re arranged so T could sleep in her bed with the alarm clock(he had to be at school at 8am for his Chem. finals) and fan and me an P would be in our bed. Me and him hang out and watch some tv.
11pm P wakes up crying and we both go up..she is ON FIRE! like no joke I could have roasted a marshmallow! We started the thermometer(rectal btw) and after like 10 seconds it was already at 104.7 104.8 104.9..i threw that thing out and we took P to the ER-Mendys Place.
When we got there she had cooled off a little..there temporal thermometer said she was 103. she could barely hold herself up on the scale she was so tired and weak. They gave her some Motrin while we waited for the Doc. 2:30AM rolls around- We had her all checked out ears, nose, throat, x ray on the lungs, catheter to check her urine.... NOTHING WAS WRONG. and BTW she was now running around the room making bird noises and talking to all the nurses. Her temp was now at 98. We went home.
Now dont missunderstand... I am happy there is nothing major going on and that she was feeling better. BUT REALLY? Ugh it was crazy. They said there is a virus going around or something..and today she is a lil grumpy and wont really eat and has a tiny temp. So I will go to the doc on Monday. BUT REALLY? Of all the times to have a crazy temperature that pans out to be nothing...
CRAZY CRAZY LIFE!
I felt bad for Trustan who got 4 hours of sleep before having to take his finals...its just Crazy. Dont you think?
Anyways thats all thats my rant/ craziness explained.
i do have to say I was a proud lil mama to see my baby being SO good for the nurses and doc. She did everything without crying or fighting at all. even the catheter she just laid there and then started talking to the nurses and daddy. it was so cute. Everyone commented on how easy she was and how surprised they were with her age. It was awesome..lil bug!
Ok im done now. Thanks for reading <3
My life as a mom and wifey!

The Chipmunk is such a good little patient. That is crazy though that her temp was so high and then just dropped back down. Weird. And poor Trustan--well God must have been watching out for him to get 4 hours of sleep, hardly any study time and still do well on his final. You have had a stressful few days. Hope tomorrow--MOther's Day--is a little more relaxing.
