Unfortunately Sunday afternoon she developed a fever of 104 and it continued for three days until we could get her into our pediatrician. We were able to manage it with Motrin and Tylenol, but she was miserable and not sleeping well. The doctor did a few tests and believes her fever is being caused by an infection in her lungs. We have been given a nebulizer and are treating her 3 times a day for 7 days with Albuterol and she had also been given Zithromicine. She is a little trouper and takes the treatments very well. She also loves her bed. She actually slept in it last night. (However I didn't sleep at all because I kept worrying she would fall out of it and I checked in on her every hour.)

Poor baby; I am happy she likes her new bed though. It is too bad you could not sleep though. I sure hope this medication works. Apparently she has a history of immune problems and hopefully the pediatrician can figure out what is wrong. She is so cute.
ReplyDeleteLove to all,
MOM/Grandma
We have been doing the Nebulizer/Albuterol treatments for our son for ten years now. We go into the Dr. next week for a refill so we can take it to China with us. We never leave home without it.
ReplyDeleteHope Miss Faith feels better soon. I don't know how she couldn't in that happy bedroom she's set up in ;)
Poor kiddo! It's so sad to watch your kids suffer. I hope she feels better soon. By the way, the photo of her with the pink purse is ADORABLE! :)

The poor little thing! I hope Faith is feeling better soon. We do breathing treatments here too so these pictures look very familiar!
ReplyDeleteHope you have a great weekend!
Hi Dawn! We are just coming out of the daze of the crazy long trip home with Lexi. No one slept here last night and Lexi had a fever too! Hoping to get back on track soon!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't view your blog while in China! I wish we could have been there at the same time.

Aww, poor thing. I hope she gets over this infection fast! She looks like she is right at home and adjusting well! Dawn, have you ever thought about getting those bed railings. I used those on my kids beds for a long time and it will ease your mind that she won't fall out. : )
ReplyDeletei wish i looked as good as her when i'm sick.
