Kresee has had a snotty nose and a little cough for about a week now....But Thursday night, she was acting more tired than usual....It was about 7:30 and I knew she wasn't going to make it to her 8:00 bedtime, so I went ahead and gave her some cough medicine (which she has a hard time taking---she shudders, sneezes, and coughs EVERY time she takes it)....She kind of kept burping though...At 7:45 Kerry and I went into her room to give her a bottle and he was checking her room temperature and she was still burping...I even commented are you going to throw up and then then she did all over the both of us....The first time that's ever happened and she felt a tad warm...She wasn't running a fever but she had a 100.2....So I let her drink 3 oz of her bottle and held her for the next hour in our room while she slept to make sure she didn't throw up again...We think it was from all the drainage and the medicine since she never threw up again and her temp never went any higher....She woke up around 9:00 and drank 2 more oz and then we let her sleep in our room for the night.....To be on the safe side I took off work yesterday and ran her in to see Dr. Yap....End result--poor thing has a right ear infection (first one) and a sinus infection (since the snotty nose and cough has lasted more than 7 days)....So I had to run and get her first antibiotic...She did fine yesterday, but looked like she felt bad...Took 3 naps and they actually lasted longer than 30 mins....But she slept from 8-8 last night and only whined one time around midnight...So I think she is already doing better today and she isn't pulling at her ears as much today....Hoping this is not the start of fun ear infections...
