Feeling Better

Our Crewser Pants is finally feeling better. :( Last week Monday I noticed he really wasn't acting like himself. He'd wake up grumpy, smiled less, and cried more. He was also hardly eating at all. He'd nurse for a minute or so and then cry. On Tuesday night his temp got up to 100. I called and talked to a nurse who scheduled us to see his doctor the next morning. By the morning his temp was up to 101.4 and he was just miserable. 

His doctor checked him over and narrowed it down to hand, foot, and mouth, which is apparently going around like crazy right now. His throat was bright red. It was not a fun week. The only thing we could give him for it was tylenol. Wednesday and Thursday were his worst days. He developed a little rash on his head, belly, and back, but it wasn't too bad, thank goodness. On Friday he began to eat a bit more, and Saturday too. Today he is himself again, and we are happy!

 

I also had to post this hilarious picture. Jeremy got up Crew with this morning and I got two extra hours of sleep. When he came into the room, this is how I was sleeping. Exhausted mommy!
