Hi!
Despite my happy greeting this is not going to be an upbeat post. Two nights ago I woke up around 1am -3am with a 102.1 fever. Dad gave me some Tylenol, a glass of water (with a straw!) and put a cool rag on my back, neck and belly. My fever broke about 20 minutes later when the Tylenol kicked in and I slept fine the rest of the night. Yesterday was a pretty normal day until a few hours after bedtime. I woke up crying and screaming mostly cause my belly was really bloated (most likely from increase in milk to formula ratio). However dad noticed that I was cold, really cold, like 94 degrees cold. Dad gave me some gas medicine bundled me up with 3 blankets then mom and dad took turns holding me to warm me up. Eventually I warmed up to around 97 and let out some of the gas then finally went back to sleep. Now for the really bad part, today I woke up with what appears to be measles. The doctors office says its most likely just a reaction to either the MMR or Chicken Pox vaccine and to use some Benadryl for the itching and rash and apap or ibu for fever if needed. So, I finally got to where I was feeling better and playing like normal the next darn day I basically get vaccine induced measles. Dad is just assuming its the measles portion that Im reacting to since I don't have any blisters yet like with Pox and the spots I do have look more like measles than rubella. Anyways, that's whats up with me. If my rash gets really bad dad will take a picture and show y'all. See ya later.
