Little A had a slight fever last night and got somewhat worst this morning. This is his first fever, he had the flu a few times but his temperature never got this high. I’m at work. I was all ready to call in to stay home but I have a system going live today and I need to be at work. I need to be at home too. I need to be with my baby but I left for work. I’m ridden with guilt. Ahhh – the working mom’s guilt. Thankfully we were staying at my mom’s last night since we were celebrating my nephew’s birthday. We planned on the sleep over at mom’s and as it turned out a blessing. Now little A is with his dad. Yea, dH got to stay home from work today. My mom and dad is also there to entertain the little one and back dH up. That eases my worry a little bit. He cried when I left for work today, usually he would just wave and blow me kisses. I had to leave quickly, not wanting to let him see the tears streaming down my face.
DH took little A to see his dr just to be safe. My dad when along with him because he says he wanted to make sure his grandson was ok. Auwww how sweet was that? As it turned out, the dr didn’t give little A anything, just asked us to monitor him for a couple of days since the fever is still new it was too soon to rule anything out. We are to make sure little A drinks a lot of milk and water and eat fruits for vitamin C. If the fever persist in next few days we need to take little A in to get his blood tested. Praying that little A will get well really soon and he is just teething and nothing more sinister. We took little A swimming last week and he enjoyed it so much and love putting his head underwater, I’m hoping the fever is not from an ear infection. Thankfully we have a long weekend coming. I can’t wait to be home with my baby.
TGIF – Have a good weekend my dears!
Love

The guilt. I know. But I dont work. My guilt when my son had a fever was, what did I do wrong that my son eventually had his first high fever? Did everything I could to ease him when he was uncomfortable. We stayed at my mom’s too. Not to deny it but our parents are definitely a great help when it comes to our LOs being sick. Hopefully yours isnt any bacterial fever. Because mine was. He had a throat infection very deep inside to the point of he didnt want to take anything. And lost weight. The first dr we went said it was viral fever. But it got worst. Second dr said it was bacterial fever. Alhamdulillah then he got better after a few days. Praying for your LO to recover soon enough!
