Armed With Love & Children's Tylenol

For the past two nights, the little one hasn't been sleeping so well. She's been much warmer than usual & wasn't keeping down all of her milk. This morning she was feverish so I took her to our doctor to have get checked out.


Such a sweet face.


My sad little baby in my lap this morning.


Basically we think it's just a little infection that she is fighting -- but it sure is sad. It's so hard to watch such a little baby be so upset when they can't tell you what hurts.

She seems happiest when she is in her car seat, so right now I'm letting her sleep in it as long as she wants. When she wakes up I'm going to slip her some children's Tylenol & cross my fingers that she feels better soon. We've been told that if her fever hits 38.5 then we'll be making a trip up to emerg. Cross your fingers that we don't have to do that.

I think my heart would just break.


In her happy place.

Sleep well, my baby girl. When you wake, mama will snuggle you til you are a happy little noo noo once more.

Think happy, healthy thoughts for us. Merci.

wishing you well...I am dreading the first time Ava gets sick! It's inevitable but oh so heartbreaking.

Hope she's ok... Nothing sadder than a sick baby. But, your heart WON'T break. It'll just become tougher. Motherhood is funny like that.

Hugs.
