I haven't posted in a while and it is mostly because Delaney was sick and is just now getting back to herself. Right after her birthday, we took her in for her 1 year checkup. She got three shots and the next day woke up with a 104.5 fever. She has always gotten a fever from shots, but never this bad. I couldn't get it to come down, so the doctor wanted to see her right away. Of course, the fever dropped some by the time we got there, but she just was not herself at all. She was starting to get an ear infection so we were on antibiotics for a week for that. She also had a little bit of a cold, so between the shots, beginning of an ear infection and a cold, her fever was just out of control. They said if it didn't break in 48 hours to bring her back in. It broke about 46 hours later. Even though she got over the fever, she still hasn't been herself the last two weeks at all. I finally took her back in yesterday because of her irritability and she had been picking at one of her ears, but all was clear. They said it is probably just due to teething (which she is going through also). She has a really rough time with teething and one tooth was about to pop through last week, but it receded back up in there a little bit. It is like groundhog's day, I don't see a tooth, two more weeks of teething. Ugh.
But, we finally got our little D back last night. She finally perked back up and today she had her first good day at daycare since she went back after being sick. Anyway, to make a long post short, we are hopefully on the road to recovery and she can focus on those first steps which are coming quickly.
Trying to get our little fever monster to eat something. Applesauce, bananas, and formula was all we could get down her the first two days.
Our miserable little one.
We could get a few smiles out of her, but this is what she wanted to do all day long. Just sit and cuddle in the chair. Now, for anyone that knows Delaney, usually I can't get this kid to sit still for 2 seconds let alone cuddle. This was a big sign for us that she really was feeling pretty bad.
And here is one of our little girl finally feeling better last night.
