Back Again

Waiting with daddy to see his doc

After sending the day at home yesterday with no fever Avery was ready to return to daycare and see all his friends this morning. Turns out that a lot of his friends were home sick today, and yesterday too. Because Avery still had a rather nasty cough, that has caused the past few nights to be semi sleepless, I made an appointment for him to see his doctor this afternoon, things can change so fast and seeing his own doctor who knows him just seemed like a good idea. I knew he wasn't totally himself when i dropped him off, but I hoped being at daycare would actually help him get back into his routine and get some quality nap time in, I also hoped that he would be able to make it all day without having to go home. Around 12:30 I was informed that Avery had a "running down his leg" style diaper, I didn't have to pick him up it was only a heads up/warning that he wasn't feeling well again. And at 2:45, I did get the call that he had a fever and I needed to come and get him. I would never describe Avery as a fussy baby, except for parts of the last couple of days. That is how you can really tell something just isn't right, he seems to cry for no reason, he is coughing all the time,  and sometimes it looks like it's hard for him to breathe, honestly his doctors appointment could come soon enough.
As a result of his appointment he is now on a new antibiotic, he was tested for RSV (results pending), he has some "crackles" in his right lung, his SATS are semi low and we are testing his poo for blood. Tomorrow we have a follow up appointment to see if anything has changed after some more neb treatments and the new antibiotic. Is he sick, yes...Are we worried, yes (it's our job we're his parents) but he is tough little guy and always surprises us. Hoefully he gets a good nights sleep tonight and wakes up himself in the morning and can enjoy his day at Grandmas (since he cannot go back to daycare until Friday)
