This has been one LONG weekend. It all started on Thursday, Madison was really restless all Wednesday night and when we checked her temperature it was 102.5, i waited a little while and checked it again and still the same. I gave her some Tylenol and it came down some, but then it started to go back up. I also noticed she was pulling and grabbing at both ears. I called and her pediatrician was gone for the weekend, so i called my regular doctor and they got her in, the doctor checked her and was sure she had a double ear infection. We got some antibiotics and off we went. I started giving it to her and rotated Tylenol and Ibuprofen, and she was doing better, then her fever came back.
Friday was a miserable day since she had a fever of 103 or around there all day, she strated getting a Lacey look to her but i figured it was the temp she was, and about half way throught the day she got the diriah, it keep getting worse and worse, it felt so bad seeing how much pain she was in. All she wanted to do was be held and sleep. Now Madison is not a quiet still baby, she is crawling everywhere and pulling hewr self up an anything that holds still long enough, we talked with the doctor and he said to watch her and if irt got worse to let him know.
Saturday her fever broke until we gave her medicine and then it would spike and then come back down some and spike and stay high, she seemed more happy and even played some. IT was probally the best day since something new hadn't come up.
Sunday morning we gave her her medicine and then she needed shanged, and Seth noticed that she had a spotted stomache and back. Of course i got worried since both my dad and I are allgeric to all the clillins, penicillin,amoxicillin ect... we went and shoed my mom and dad her rash, they said to keep an eye on it and not take her to church, after we got back home i left a message for the doctor telling him waht was going on. We then decieded that I would hang out at my parents since her rash was spreading some and she was due for her next dose about the time our ward started and if she ahd a dramatic reaction i would have someone with me. of course the fever spiked and she just wanted to sleep, but was okay. We had dinner nad then we gave her her last dose at bed time, i made her sleep with use so that if she had any problems i could be right there and get her the help she would need.
Monday today, i called her peditirician since she was back and gave them the run down on what had happened, they had the nurse call me back, then they called me back and then the asked us to bring her right in. We where on our way when we got a call from the other dr saying the wanted to see her back in and check it, i told them we were going to the peditirician and they were fine with that. We got in and they weighed her and she was a whopping 12 lbs 9 ounces, glad she hadn't lost anyweught through this. After looking at her rash and checking her ears she still had the double ear infection, her throat was red so they did a strep test and decieded that she was allergic to the amoxicillin, so now we are on a new antibiotics for the next 5 days but this is once a day, let's hope that other then going through the temple with Kayla and Cameron and Kayla's wedding are the only exciting things that happen this weekend
