Since my little munchkin's been born he has only had 2 fevers, one at birth & the last couple days. They're very mild so nothing to 'really' worry about. But bing a first time mom it most definitely is something to worry about. Thankfully my god-mother/aunt is an RN here in the states & a licensed MD in the Philippines. Lucky for me she's just one phone call or text away!
Ares hasn't been fussy at all the last couple of days but it seems like, with most children, the fever spikes at night. Oh yes! Another wonderful reason to be up in the wee hours of the morning. I repeat he isn't fussy. But awake! Wide awake! He's currently kicking me to get my attention & yes, he's got it even though I'm on here blogging about my first personal run-in with a sickly infant.
Well.. I think it's time to try & put this little party boy to bed, again! Hopefully, it works this time & he stays asleep. Ten minutes ago I was given the thumbs up to give him some Infant Acetaminophen 0.4ml (for future reference). Although he may or may not really need it for a mother's peace of mind.. Oh it helps.
Okay! Time to put Mr. Cool-Guy & Cookie Monster to sleep.. Can't forget Scout!
Aaaaaaaand.. Good night!
