Thursday evening Megan wouldn't sleep for anything but was cheery, giggly and just playing all night. Ok, didn't think anything was wrong with that, just thought she was hitting a new milestone since she was blabbing all night and figured that's why she wasn't sleeping.
Yesterday (Friday) she was in a good mood and was laughing and giggling and mkaing everyone laugh at the restaurant last night. She was her usual happy self. The only thing weird about yesterday before she got sick was that Ryan said our sitter told him Megan got a small bloody nose. That was weird, IMO. Megan went to bed on time, no problem. At about 10 pm she woke up all cheery and such so I just let her play for a bit, but noticed she was REALLY congested. She had not even an ounce of congestion before I put her to bed at 7:30 p.m. A few minutes after I noticed her congestion I noticed she was VERY VERY warm. We took her temp and it was 101 under arm (so basically 102). All of a sudden she became very fussy and proceeded to have that "I'm in pain" cry til 3 am this morning when she passed out. ![]() ![]() ![]() Oh and she had one green mucousy diaper last night when we got home from the restaurant. Before the fever I was for sure all the signs pointed to teething or she ate something that didn't agree, but when the fever hit that threw all those ideas out the window. Do you think it still could be teething or is this something more? I am so exhausted I can't see straight. ![]() I hope my baby gets better soon and my other one doesn't get it. ![]() ![]() -------------------- ~*Karen*~

I hope she feels better soon. I know that Kyrsten runs a slight fever when she is teething but I don't think that high. I would check with ped it may be a cold.

I would check for croup also. Kyrsten started out stuffy then got really sick fast.

It could still be teething. Both my girls run high fevers when teething (Madison's 1st tooth is visible under the gum but hasn't quite broken through yet and she's got a fever of 100.5).
I agree, take her in on Monday if she's not better. Let's hope she keeps it to herself! |

Has she teethed like that before? If Nora acted that way, I'd take her in... it would be very abnormal for her. Does your ped have Saturday hours?

The bloody nose sounds weird to me...I would at least make a call to my ped, just to make sure. Then again, I freak out over everything since I've only had one.

I sure hope that she feels better soon. A sick baby can make things miserable for everyone. Kensington was sick a little while ago and she still has the congestion, but at least she is sleeping better.
I hope she feels better soon! ![]() Angela |

Amy, no she hasn't teethed with a high fever before. With a very low low grade fever, yes and she does the up all night crying in pain bit with teething, but that's it. So far today she just has a low grade fever, congestion (but only noticeable when she sleeps) and that's it. She's been her ever loving HAM self since. ![]() ![]() Our ped doesn't have Saturday hours and we've had encounters with the ER I'd never like to have again so we'll just see how she does and if she gets worse we'll go in, if not we'll wait til Monday. Oh cripes, she just woke up! This kid just won't sleep. ![]() -------------------- ~*Karen*~

The bloody nose thing makes me wonder if maybe some of the blood didn't go into her lungs when she was sleeping and make her congested like that. I've seen it happen, was it a lot of blood?
is she just congested when she breaths? or does she have a yucky cough too? It is also RSV season, and a fever and cough can go along with that. |

I don't think it's teething, particularly with the congestion. Sounds like yet another cold, Karen. Sorry about that! Get well vibes all around!

What's the humidity like? That could cause a real dry nose, ...then lead to the slight bleeding. If that's the case, the ped is going to recommend/prescribe saline drops to drop in her nose, and suction (FUN!
