So as all you all know we have all been under the weather since last week. Sani is finally feeling better but she is so hoarse poor baby :-( she woke up around 4am this morning crying and I thought she was her brother she was so raspy. So we took her in and she slept with us until morning.
Maddox had a fever since Thursday and was throwing up a lot poor baby, and as a result was not producing any wet diapers, I called the peds and she mentioned that if his diaper was not wet within a 4hr period then I had to take him in to the ER. Thankfully he did make a pee yesterday but by the time I got home around 8pm it was already 3 hrs since he was changed and his diaper was still pretty dry.
Thankfully this morning when he woke up there was some sign that he went, but since I changed him at 8am this morning by the time I was heading to the ER around 3pm or so there was no sign of pee. I took him to St. Barnabas while Adri stayed home with Sani, they had to stick my baby three times to find a viable vein because he was dehydrated and they finally found one in his foot.
Omg it was so hard 4 of us had to hold him down so the nurse to get it in. They gave him a chest xray because he is so congested and they wanted to rule out pneumonia, we found out that he has an ear infection and they felt so bad for him when they saw the severity of his eczema, my sister and I tried to explain to them that he was actually have an awesome skin day today but they still mentioned that his skin was quite inflamed and so they offered him steroids for the eczema, antibiotics for the ears, Benadryl for his itching, Tylenol for his fever and something else I can't remember what now...
Anyway, by the time they were all done prodding and poking my poor noot noot boy and he finally fell asleep there came a nurse telling me they had to take his temp.
Really people why do you all do this, I think nurses have a nap radar :-)
So thank God his temp dropped but we have to keep an eye on him and keep him hydrated as much as we can until we see his ped on Monday.
Good Night and check in Monday
