Temp, Grizzly, Not eating and tired?

Thanks, it drops as soon as the nurofen kicks in.. gotta find some panadol tomorrow so i can alternate until the Dr's open on Monday... poor girl.

Love the cuddles but god she was HOT to touch and so sooky... starting to drain me.. feel so sorry for her though, she has no idea what to do with herself.

Ok so the poor girl was waking every 10-15min after i put her to bed, as soon as i decided to go to bed she woke screaming.
Checked her temp again 39.3 only 2hrs after nurofen...
So she came into my room, we put on her new wiggles DVD and i spoon fed her a hydrolite icypole as she wouldn't take water, it was 10:30.
THEN as she wouldn't let a cold cloth near her we jumped in a cool shower together for 5min, got out and this time watching the wot wots on DVD til she slowly started to drift... telly og.. AWAKE
So wot wots back on til she was asleep (well after 11:30), tossed and turned all night, grizzling in her sleep every 30min or so...
DP comes home drunk, takes up ALL the room and so does DD so my big fat PG belly had to fit on the edge of the bed without touching DD and making her hotter.

This morn temp is back down to 36 but it did that yesterday aswell so keeping an eye on her and off to get panadol once DP is alive, also dragging his sorry butt out to look at furniture for Bubs and give DD some new scenery to look at.

Is it just the needles and why is the nurofen wearing off so quick?
Hope that was it, she's been miserable and i feel so sorry for her, she ate a slice of toast but didn't try her on more as she hasnt eaten properly in 2 days and don't want to make her sick, will give her a couple of small meals today.. is that best?

When a baby has their needles it gives their immune system a bit of a whack, so any other bugs that are around are more likely to affect them at that time. She probably has just got a wee bug on top of the raised temp from the needles, and it sounds like you are doing everything right.

As I said before though if you are worried about her becoming dehydrated or not being able to get her temp down take her to the emergency room. They would rather see her than not.
