Well, Lauren has not been herself lately, and had been running a low grade fever for a few days but Tylenol kept it under control. We thought it was just teething. We were wrong. I stayed home with her Monday afternoon after the daycare called and said she was not feeling well and by Tuesday she was not feeling well at all. We got a call from daycare saying she was running a fever of 101.4 and she had not ate all day. Kraig took her to the Dr. Tuesday afternoon and it turns out that Lauren had ear infections in BOTH ears! Poor baby! The bad news is that it's not even cold and flu season yet and she is already starting to get ear infections (due to runny nose, etc.). I just hope this is not the first of many, as she had 3 or 4 last year and they talked about getting tubes if she got more. Luckily she didn't get any more last season...but here we go again and it's not even into the full cold weather time! The Dr. looked at her history and told Kraig that if she has ear infections like she did last year they would have to put tubes in. :-( I've had people tell me that the tubes are actually not that bad...I just hate it that it's actual surgery! So please pray that my baby girl will not have any more ear infections!!!!
The good news is she has been on an antibiotic now for 2 days and she is feeling MUCH better! She is back to eating like normal and playing, etc. So it looks like it's on the up and up! :-)
