Hey Meg! How high is Coco's temp? Poor thing. So maybe it is her tummy. Is she rubbing at her ears or anything? I know babies can run a slight temp with teething, but it sounds like Coco's is a higher temp than that. I hope she feels better soon. Have you tried giving her a cool bath?
I haven't taken her temp since the doc did yesterday. It was 38.2. The day before it was higher. I think they say with a virus it can be a really high temp for a few days...and I can tell when I touch her forehead (with my lips...) how hot she is. I have always been able to telll if my girls have a temp.
I won't take it again because I only worry myself. Kind of like weighing myself, better not to know!!
Hopefully it will start to go soon, I've given her so much medicine. At least she's been eating and drinking though, so it's not so bad having the medicine. Wouldn't like to keep giving it if there was nothing in her tum.
I keep remembering though, from my mothers group first aid talk, that it's important to bring a high temp down, so I guess I'd prefer that than not giving med. I definitely think its an illness, just hope it's one of those viruses that just disappears as quick as it came!!
How's Abby going?? xo
