Hi mommas,
This is long and possibly very badly written very rushed(Got a meeting in 5mins)
Yesterday I sent in a very happy baby to nursery. Saw her "fangs" were coming out but she was fine throughout Sunday and through the night.
So come Monday i send her to nursery happy as ever(She is a very happy sociable baby). When my husband picked her up at 6and came to pick me up i raced to the car cuz i could see from a distance she wasn't well and looked so tired and lethargic. and she wasn't smiling just crying and moaning and wanted to hold my hand tightly till we got home.
I quickly took off her coat and checked her temp which was 39.7! I took her upstairs and gave her a 5ml dose of nurofen cuz i ran out of calpol. At this point she had been crying for 20mins straight, wouldn't let me put her down, wouldn't swap to my husband or anything she kinda just hugged my neck and dangled. I had to change her whilst carrying her (don't ask ) she only let my husband near her when he was holding the tablet so she could watch In the night garden while i made her milk. She had a good drink of milk( Starting to get concerned the nursery doesn't give her alot to drink...sorry off topic.
her room was 16 degrees(Hubby forgot to set timer) and she was burning up my arm. She fell asleep very quick after finishing her bottle. i kept checking her temp and it took almost 45mins for it to come down. I then transferred her over to her cot. I was obsessively watching her on monitor she was panting at times and moaning...poorly behaviour i'd say.
She had the dreaded D&V last week from the nursery but she wasn't different and no temp or tiredness. we just lost a fair few sleep suits and used alot of diapers.
About 12am she woke and i moved her to our bed and she was up for a little bit. I gave her another dose of nurofen and sang songs till we both fell asleep. she kept pushing to cuddle up to me on my pillow but i kept having to pull her off because of my body heat and i could feel the heat coming off her but she had a temp of 38.7 i think.
we slept through till 6:30 and played in bed with the thermometer
Got up at 7 got ready then picked her up to get her ready and she was not a fan but she never is but she was extra not a fan as she was grizzly.
However breakfast did the trick and she happily had her yogurt and porridge and blueberries and a drink of water.
I checked her temp before we left the house and it was borderline as it was blinking amber so 38.1
got her to nursery got her out the car and she spotted her person called her name and happily walked off to her and was chatting with her friends in the hallway( manic drop off today)
I have a feeling the will call me to come get her.
I keep getting told its teething by friends who are moms but after a lil google research it seems more like a virus.
What do you think? Should I call Gp to have a chat? or should i wait and see what she is like later on today?
Thank you so much
Just when i think im getting good at the mommy thing something crops up and i'm left in tears not understanding what is happening or what i have done wrong
