Under the Weather...

On saturday morning Mom, Dad and Babe all woke up a little tired, from there it got worse, little O wouldn't eat her bottle, I could tell she was hungry would take a few sucks and stop and start crying...then came lunch time we wanted her to eat so we could do our regular saturday thing, Nope, would not take the bottle so Now i'm like maybe teething, she was still smiling, she would nurse just fine, this went on all day so by bedtime i was starting to get concerned, we tried to give her the nightime bottle had a few sucks and nothing, she also didn't reallly have a wet diaper in 2 hours so I knew that she could get dehydrated soon, we gave her some tylenol put her in her crib and she went to sleep.

By this time i was uncertain about what was going on, maybe a UTI, maybe an ear infection who knows she couldn't tell me, so I called health link, they were useless, so at 830 i went in her room and did a dream feed and she ate the whole bottle, she also woke up at 330am and she ate the whole thing.

We woke up this morning with a new perspective and nothing so we decieded to take her in to the Cochrane urgent care, its really quiet because it just opened, she was a good girl, no fever but a red throat..the verdict...Strep Throat?? Maybe....they did a swab, gave a perscription and will the call with the results. They said to keep her on tylenol so we just tried feeding her and she did eat but only 4 oz's...wish us luck!
