What an exciting last couple of days.
It all started Sunday with a low grade fever that kept creeping up. It reached its peak of 104 that night. Non stop crying Monday afternoon brought us to the pediatrician where we ruled out strep, ear infections ( so we thought) and his chest was clear.
Home we went to continue to try to get him to eat or drink (anything)
Tuesday morning we were sent for blood work and strictly monitoring cooper's fluid in take and out take.
Wednesday morning, after another phone call to the doctors office with his diaper and sippy update, we were admitted to the local hospital for high fever and dehydration, where we have spent the last 48 hours.
This was iv number 1 our second and third ivs were in his feet. This chair is where we spent our 48 hours- rocking a lot and snuggling
Eating a graham cracker while he waited for his breakfast (he ate 2/3 of a banana and a 1/4 of a pancake and then Mama's McDonald's hash brown before we left. Plus a cereal bar when he got home. He is finally getting back to normal)3 IV's and lots of fluid bags and we were discharged this morning. Discharge criteria was that he had to eat breakfast :)
There were lots of exciting moments in our stay (exploding IV's, sleeping in a rocking chair, rocking 24/7) and even a Few Ah ha's (finally disagnoised his infection after he broke out in a full body in a rash, plus an ear infection, tummy medicine,)
We are home from the hospital, in clean Jammie's and have enjoyed a nap in our own beds.
God is good and we are so thankful for all the prayers and support of our friends and loved ones.
It's good to be home!
