    Hi DM, how is your little man today, if I had come on here last night, I would have told you to go straight to the hospital too. I hope your little bubba is better today. I hope the reason you havent come on here to update is because your catching up on some sleep.
    Again I hope all is ok, sending lots of hugs

    Thanks hun, we posted at the same time. All is well (read the post above yours )
    Thanks for your message
    xoxo

    I am so glad Tobias is feeling better Definitely sounds like a classic case of Roseola to me. I hope it's not an allergy..but you will find most doctors have a standard answer of "looks like a reaction to something" or "it's a viral thing" (and they can't tell you which virus, LOL.)

    Hope you can both get some rest today after your long night. Well done looking after him mummy.

    Yeah, I wouldn't be worrying about the allergy diagnosis any more, unless you get a reaction next time he has cows milk.
    Honestly, I would've done what you did. Stripped him, dosed him up & kept an eye on him over the next day or so.
    I was at the hospital for you last night My baby man has croup. Would've been there right when you were posting!

    poor little mite. im glad he is feeling better.

    I was sound asleep lastnight when u posted this.. but i would have given some nurofen. I prob wouldnt have gone to the hospital, but if i was worried, i would have rang the nurse on call or something. Fever is a good thing remember, its the bodies way of fighting off illnesses.

    just keep in mind that most viruses flare up in the evening, through the night, so although he may seem okay during the day you could have another few nights of sickness.

    personally i would be keeping the neurofen use to a minimum unless he is totally unreasonably distressed by the fever. fever is the body's healing system

    Hi, just letting you all know I'm taking him for a second opinion as he's been crying again most of today with a fever but is refusing his milk, when I go to feed him once the teet goes into his mouth he pushes it away & starts screaming... like a painful scream. So he's only had his morning bottle at 7:45 this morning & a bit of vegemite toast (& a bit of water, not sure how much he drank because he plays with his cup & most of it ends up over the table so cant tell how much he drank)

    He's really not himself. I also had to rock him to sleep as he just wouldn't settle, I was like a prisoner in his room, as soon as I stopped rocking him (in his cot) he would get big eyes & check why I stopped, eventually I was able to sneak out.

    Just thought I'd let you all know
