F/U (Follow Up) to Unhappy Camper :(

No fever when I checked this morning (he'd been 100.6 and 100.7 yesterday).  Temp today: 99.8.  Yay!  It's also obvious that Baby Bird is feeling better, as he's less clingy today.  I'd pretty much been holding him for the past 36+ hours and finally he was content to play in his crib and hang out in his sleeper for a bit.  Still a bit congested, but not as bad as yesterday.

So we have survived our first fever, and first attempts at taking a rectal temperature reading (sure helped to see the pediatrician do it first)!

Unhappy camper :(

Up for part of the night with Baby Bird. :( Crying and crying, not sure what's wrong but think it's his reflux medicine. He was doing so well, doctor said we didn't need to increase his meds for weight anymore (a sort of self-wean). Well, that doesn't seem to be working. Or at least, I hope that's it, because it's an easy fix. For a while I'd thought his reflux was gone. Now I'm not so sure. :(

UPDATE: It's not reflux, at least, we don't think it is.  Turns out Baby Bird has a fever, so likely he's just got a cold.  So, no day care for him today; Mommy and Baby Bird stay home today.  Ha, but not before Mommy locks herself (and Baby Bird) out of the apartment, and has to wait for Daddy to come home from work to rescue them.  Luckily it didn't start raining until after walking to/from the pediatricians'!
