[Roxie2007]

HI! Gosh I hope your son is OK! I'll bet it's been a very long night for you! It's SO hard when little ones are sick with a temp.! My son is 31 now but he used to be sick with temps SO often! I feel for you and your family! Keep us posted on how he is! Thinking of you! Roxie

I know where your at, a very wise genetic councelor told me once don't feel guilty about turning the kids channel on or a DVD if it means you get a rest, so sit or lie down as much as possible today and I hope your night is better tonight.

[GriffsMommy]

Oh no Cindy, I'm sorry that Jake is sick and keeping you up all night. I hope that he starts to feel better soon and you can get some sleep. I still love nap time, when Griffin goes down so do I, lol. Hope you both feel better soon. :grouphug:

Oh no Cindy.. Not again..
You think maybe its him trying to get use to his new bed.. Or like we talked about he could be teething, His 2 year molars could be coming in early..Did you try giving him some tylenol? Well if you need me you know my number.. I wish I was closer so I could watch him today so you could get some rest..(((((((hugs))))))))

:grouphug: It's really tough when they're awake all night being sick. When my kids were small, I used to take them to bed with me when they were sick. That way I got a little sleep and they did too.

Hugs,
Donna

thanks girls, he has a 10:30 appt. I called and cancelled todays vist, like she would show anyway.. guess its my turn, but at least I have an excuse. He is pulling at his tongue and ear, so something might be going on there. I gave him motrin at 4 this morning, he still feels clammy and warm, very pale and around his eyes look purpleish, and a runny nose. I tried putting him to bed with us, but, he just didn't know what he wanted..
well better scoot and get him ready to go.

[leelee88]

Hope he gets to feeling better soon..Give him a hug and kiss for me....:smile tee

[ICNDonna]

Sounds like the poor little guy has an ear ache! Give him lots of hugs for me.

I used to have many all-nighters with my youngest - used to run 104 fevers all day/night. Try and put in his favor video and lay him either in his bed and you on the floor (or both on the floor--or if you have a DVD in your room take him in your room and try to get him to sleep--nothing wrong with that) but like Donna said he probably has an ear ache. Give him some hugs from us.

[GriffsMommy]

Cindy,
How is Jake feeling? How did his dr appt go? Hope he's feeling better :grouphug:

[tigger_gal]

Hi girls.. I typoed his temp it was 102.8 . He has a throat infection and 2 ear infections. I finally got him down for a nap, faxed over the drs invoice a script to foster care, was going to lay down, then Jake fell outta his toddler bed. :(
he's ok, but very fussy, tired and hurting. Gave him more mmotrin, and he is on 14 days of amoxicillian.
thanks for your hugs and prayers

[leelee88]

Well I am glad you know whats wrong with him...I sure hope he gets to feeling better soon... Poor baby...(((((((hugs)))))))

[dancemomof2]

poor little guy, hopefully a couple doses of amox. and he will perk up some.

[mary124]

Glad he is on his way to feeling better. Hopefully with a few doses of "the pink stuff" he will be his old self again. And both of you can get some sleep.

[SharonA]

Sorry I didn't get to this sooner. I am so glad that you were able to find out what was going on with him so quickly. Ear infections can be so miserable. Poor guy. Hopefully he will rest better tonight so you can get some sleep.

(((hugs)))

[tigger_gal]

thank you girls, I felt so helpless, and felt so bad that I didn't know he was hurting.
