Jan. 9, 2006 - Insomnia and sick kids |
A (21 months) is still sick. He's had
a fever now for 5 days. I made an appointment to bring him in
tomorrow. He's still hydrated, as he nurses OK (though not
great), eats fruit juice homemade popsicles, and drinks water. I
am pretty sure he has the flu--he has all the respiratory symptoms, and
the high fever. But 5 days of high fever is my personal comfort
level for little ones, so I want to get him checked out.
And for the second night in a row, I'm having trouble sleeping. I
know it's the fact my routine is off. Last night E slept on the
couch, and A and I slept in E's bed (A sleeps in a toddler bed
otherwise). I just missed my bed. Tonight A would only go to
sleep on the couch, so I have to sleep on the floor next to him, and I
miss my bed.
I'm fighting the same flu, I can feel it. And the lack of sleep
doesn't help my cause much. Now I also have to miss MOPS
tomorrow, and probably my playgroup on Wednesday. Hopefully he'll
be better for his playgroup with grampa on Thursday.
Not much to this but whining, I know. It's so hard to see him so miserable.

| It's so hard when the little ones are sick! It's hard for them and hard for mom. Praying that you'll all be well soon... |

| he has a double ear infection. :( Poor guy. We started antibiotics and ear drops this afternoon. He is still gushing mucus, too. Hopefully he'll sleep better tonight, though. THanks for asking, it was a hard day today. Well, not all that hard if my goal was to have them watch videos all day :) |
