He's been running a fever off and on today along with a bad headache and some vomiting.
Poor baby. He's almost NEVER sick which makes it worse on him. He's asleep right now (again) after taking some Children's Motrin and a cool bath.
I'm watching his fever. It was 103 last time and is Dr said if it goes up anymore after it breaks, then it's a trip to the ER



Can I get son get well vibes for my little man?

I was reading through them all earlier... He's only 5 so the Airborne and zinc arent for him.... I was told to "Let it run it's course" and if the fever goes too high then take him to the ER

Hugs and love to you. Just drink gallons of OJ so you don't get it.

Awww bless his heart
I hope he feels better soon. Hey Alycia- I saw some new Children's Airborn in the store the other day! Maybe that will help
My niece and nephews took it the last time they were sick and it helped them- they're 9,10, and 12

Well mom brought all the stuff over tonight and he's doing ALOT better. He hasn't ran a fever since late this afternoon
But I seriously doubt he's going to bed anytime soon since he slept all day

Him and Justice just went to bed and they're in there talking up a storm.
Justice warned him "You better not
on me tonight"
Gotta love kids.

I already called the school this afternoon and told them he wouldn't be in tomorrow. In FLA (maybe other places too) they aren't allowed to attend school/daycare for 24hours after running a fever or vomiting... Looks like he gets an extra day to play with all his new toys
