We woke up Saturday night to Kate laying in her crib and just moaning. No cries... just a constant little moan. We went to check on her and the girl was burning up. 104 degree fever. After a slight panic and middle of the night phone call to the nurse on call, we gave her more Tylenol and put her back to bed. She still had a fever in the morning and then we noticed this...
Poor baby. Her mouth was covered in these little blisters. I called our pediatrician again and what do you know? Hand Foot Mouth Disease. Seriously? What in the world.
This poor little princess, if there is a sickness she can catch, she is catching it! Well apparently this is contagious... like you can't go to daycare for a week contagious.. And its a virus, so you just have to wait.. and give tylenol.... and wait... and snuggle. A lot of snuggling.
So that is how we celebrated Kate's 7 month bday...
Needless to say.. We haven't had our 7 month photo shoot. Hopefully it is coming very soon.
For now, DiDi to the rescue to keep Kate for the week and continue her medicine of lots of snuggles.
