Well I took the boy to the docs this arvo - 2 days of 38+ temps and miserable as a sad sack - but all viral - so whilst it is good, she did say if temps for the next two days to bring him back again for more checking. She was very thorough too - I think she knew cos being my 3rd child, I was going on mummy instinct that something just wasnt right.

Also cos I have been doing Nurofen/paracetomol rollovers for 2 days i told her i didnt want to give him anymore LOL - she said the warning is on the boxes to make sure carers get their kids looked at after two days and dont just keep medicating them .... I never knew that!

Upside is he had a couple of tablespoons of vegies for dinner and one of custard - but his cloth 3 hour nappy before bed was practically dry so that is a worry too - so more feeding overnight whenever he wakes - which is work for me too! Anyway, i hope he starts to feel better tomorrow - I cuddled with him for 2 hours on the couch and let him snooze snuggled in to me, the best sleep he has had for 3 days i reckon.

A friend dropped off a big shepherds pie for dinner tomorrow night cos she knew I was struggling with having a monkey permanently attached, my dad and wife visiting arriving today, and school holidays etc - I love my friends big time xxx
