its midnight, I’m tired and worried I’m going to fall asleep… but my DS who is 7 months old is poorly. He’s had a little rattle on his chest for a few days and today seemed a little out of sorts all day… then this evening he started to be sick. I checked his temp and it was 40! Poor little guy.
His temp came down with some calpol but I have banned myself from overdoing it with the thermometer- I have a tendency to become paranoid, checking temps every 5 mins!
anyway, long story short… every time I put him down, 5 mins later, he is crying his eyes out. When I pick him up, he falls asleep on my shoulder… so now I am sat in bed with a heavy little boy snoozing on me. He feels a bit hot but not burning up.
Any tips on how I might be able to get him down comfortably? I’m a bit worried he’ll want to be cuddled all night… and I am trying my best to keep my eyes open so I don’t fall asleep!
