We have had a few sickly stressful weeks. As cute as Carleigh is, she also seems just as sick! She got her tubes on the 24th with no problem. I think we were waiting for less than 20 mins. When we went back to get her, she was sitting in the lap of a nurse wide awake and happy as can be! She went to daycare the next day. Jillian however, stayed home that Wednesday because she threw up in the middle of the night. I think then we had a good week or so, then on a Tuesday the 7th, I got a call from daycare that Carleigh had a fever of 103. I took her directly to the doctor because I was afraid it had something to do with her ears. Her ears looked fine & they figured she just had a virus. So, I stayed home with her on Wednesday & nana stayed with her on Thursday. She woke up on Friday with a red watery eye, geez louise! Nana was taking Jillian & Oscar to Chuck E. Cheese for Oscars birthday so she couldn't stay with her. But I figured I would take her to the doctor again for her eye. They prescribed eye drops, but her ears looked good then too. Monday the 13th, I take Carleigh to the doctor for her 18mth check up. She screamed the entire time, starting because we had to take off her coat. But now she had an ear infection. UGH. Ear drops & antibiotic for her now. As I'm walking out of the doctor office, I get a call from daycare stating Jillian is complaining & crying when she pees stating it hurts.....are you kidding me???? I dropped Carleigh off with Chris, went & picked Jillian up & took her to Immediate Care. She did an AWESOME job there, unlike last time she had to give a urine sample. She let them take her BP, weight, height & temp with no complaints. Thankfully she didn't have an UTI, just possible irritation from some foam soap we had used recently in the bath. The rest of the week went well. Saturday, we went to friends house to have a play date for Jillian. Sammy is Jillian's age & they have a daughter Lia, who is Carleigh's age. Sunday, bam, Carleigh has another flipping fever!!! I called the doctor on Monday & they said if the ears weren't draining it was probably just another virus. Take her to daycare on Tuesday, for her to get sent home automatically because they say she has hand foot mouth disease. Thankfully, she got to go back the next day & everything has been fine since, 5 whole days. She did have an ENT follow up on the 22nd. Her hearing had improved & the ear infection was gone! She is scheduled again in 6 mths for a follow up. I sure hope she starts feeling better soon because if she doesn't, I'm going to scream because she is very whiny, screams & cries for me to pick her up!! I think she is more attached to me than Jillian was, and that was a lot! LOL
