Sick baby

Last week Riley woke up one night and was very warm.  We took his temperature and it was 101.7.  We gave him some baby tylenol and I stayed up with him most of the night.  It was a rough night, sorry Dallas and Adrianne.  They were visiting us.

I took him to the doctor in the morning.  Turns out he had an ear infection.  He had to start taking amoxicillin.  It was a big struggle every time we had to give it to him, especially in the mornings when Andrew was at work.  I guess Riley hates the color pink or something, but he is better now.

Apparently the first time your baby is sick is the hardest, so hopefully I am more prepared for the next time.  Luckily it wasn't anything serious and something that could be fixed quickly.

  2. I think you may be better prepared next time but it is never very easy when your baby gets sick. I'm glad he is feeling better.
