Cult of the Hugglers

My middle name is classified. :lookaroun

Why? It may be a short name, but Anne is really nice, albeit unusual for a boy.

Did you whistle because Luke was right about
William, Edward or Peter?

 

[dandaman]

I think it begins with "W"...

I think it was William.

If so, I get a prize.

UGH... MJ's fever is 101.5 and she is congested, so I gave her some Tylenol, cold meds and a water push into her feeding tube (total of less than one ounce) and she promptly threw it back up on me

Still feeling badly? You need to get her fever back down... do you have any tylenol suppositories? Is she throwing up between feedings?

Connor - is it













Rumplestilsken?

Oh no, Bonny!
I hate when little ones are sick! Makes you feel so helpless!
If her fever doesn't go down, I'd call her doctor.
Hope she feels better soon.

Thanks Betty.... now I don't know what to do...she is supposedto be given her night time meds at 6:00 but the total of those meds is over and oz, so I have no confidence it will work...and I can't get any fluids into her if she is throwing up becuase she might blow her fundoplication out....not good, if she has to be hospitalized this is going to suck.

 

[Nemo14]

Bonny - have you tried giving her a cool bath? I had to do that a couple of times with my son when he was little - he was the king of spiking fevers!

Mad, her feeding takes place all a night and she doesn't eat or drink during the day (except in summer) can't use tylenol suppoitories, they have corn in them.... :veryconfu :veryconfu :veryconfu Waaaaahhhhhhh

I think its time to call the doctor (and thats my professional opinion as well as my mom intuition)...maybe you can get compazine suppositories to deal with the vomiting, she needs to get her medications.

Cool baths usually helped me. I'd recommend starting up the water right away! :wave:

Feel-better-MJ! *huggles*

I thought of that, but she hates baths on the best of days and since she is so big I ususally need DH's help to do that....

maybe a cool compress?

I know...normally I would, but our insurance ran out from Andrew's old job yesterday and new insurance doesn't kick in until March 1....sigh.....

That would probably help, but I'm with Mad on this - call the doctor. You really don't want to mess around with her meds!



Just for the record, we'd pretend he was in a swimming pool (complete with bathing suit) to get him to take a cool bath)

Ok, go with the cool compresses on the forehead and under the arms.

Despite that, I'd still say you should call the doctor. Risk of health over finances is never a good thing. :kiss:

 

[MommytoMJM]

I just wet down a towel for her..... man this sucks... I was afraid som,ething like this would happen.... DH didn't think we needed to get her on medicaid if we were only going to be without ins for 28 days....I may have to murder him...
