ER Visit



We spent last night in the ER. Hayden was running a fever on Friday when we picked him up from daycare. We thought maybe he is getting teeth or just got a little bug. He slept 3 hours at daycare and came home and slept 2 more. We knew something wasn't right. We finally ruled out teething because Hayden hasn't ran fever when he was teething. The only time he has had a fever is when he had an ear infection. We figured we should take him in so he could get on antibiotics and get to feeling better. We didn't want to have to wait till Monday. His doctor office is open on the weekends but his pediatrician wasn't there so our only choice was the ER. The ER doctor said his left ear was red and he has a sore throat. He though it might be strep but the test came back negative. He seems to be feeling a little better today. For some reason he doesn't want to go to sleep and has been fighting it. David and I haven't had any decent sleep for the past two nights. I am praying that tonight he will sleep. I am thinking that it hurts his ear. When he hold him up or rock him he has no problem, it is just when he lay him down. One good thing health wise is that we haven't given Hayden a breathing treatment in two months. We are slowly going to stop his Singular.
