We are still trying to recoup from an exhausting, scary, annoying, painful week from hell.
Here is the run down-
Monday morning- Ryker woke up throwing up and keep it up for almost 2 hours. So I ran him up to the urgent care in Tooele. We left there with just the reassurance everything is okay and he must have a little bug.
Tuesday- Ryker started to cough a bit but basically the day was UNEVENTFUL- yeah!
Wednesday- Ryker had his 6 month well visit. He got 3 shots and one oral vaccination. By 7:00 p.m. he was running a high fever but that is common with shots so we kept Tylenol in him throughout the night.
Thursday- By 2:00 a.m. mommy was freaking out about his temperature of 102.3 so we took him to the ER. I did not know he could have Motrin so they gave him a dose to reduce the fever and ran some flu and RSV tests. Everything came back negative but the ER doctor gave us a prescription for some antibiotics for an ear infection and the cough he had.
Friday- The ER doctor insisted we see our pediatrician to make sure Ryker is feeling okay and everthing has settled down so we went back in there for a check-up. Our pediatrician said there was no signs of an ear infection so only to take the antibiotics for 5 days instead of 10.
Saturday- UNEVENTFUL! Branded calves and hung out with family. Ryker still had a cough but I figured it would go away with the antibiotics.
Sunday- Ryker woke up coughing terribly and barky so back to the urgent care we went. He was diagnosed with croup and we were sent home with two doses for steroids.
Yes that equals "5" times in the doctors office in one week. My check book is broke (lol) and my nerves are shot (lol)! But my baby is feeling better- YEAH, Thank goodness, Hallelujah!
Now for the conclusion mommy & daddy are now sick with colds.......... go figure!!!!!!!
