We have our first illness! Last night Braydon had a temperature of 100.9, I gave him some tylenol and was going to keep checking his temp. He ate dinner, took a bath and went to bed like normal. Then around 2:20am I heard him moaning and crying, so I went to check on him. I picked him up and he was burning up and he had thrown up in bed. I took his temp both in ear and rectal. It was 103 and 105 respectively. That settled it we put him in the car and off to the ER we went.
They took his temp and gave it was 103.9 so they gave him some Motrin and Pedialyte. The doctor looked at him and determined that he had an ear infection. We got some Amoxicillin and took him home.
This morning his temp was back to normal and he appears to be fine. We will continue giving him medicine and have to take him back to the doctor in a few days. I guess we are really lucky that this is the first time he has ever been sick and that it's only an ear infection.
