Allie has been sick this week with what I'm guessing is her first cold. She's been running a low fever and had quite the runny nose and watery eyes. She's been drooling a lot too. At first I thought it could be teething, but with how long it continued I really don't think it was teething.
The poor baby has been in remarkably good spirits despite being such a mess. She hates the changing table right now because we have to wash her face and try to suction her nose as well as put some ointment on her face because of the rash from all the stuff that irritating her skin. Despite all that she's been laughing, smiling and playing.
She's stayed home all week, which has been a little stressful for mommy and daddy. The good news is we think she's coming out of it. Her fever seems to be gone, at least is was overnight. But she's home again today just because she's still a mess and out of consideration for the other baby in daycare. However, all indications are that our happy healthy baby is still in there and conquering her cold. I hope its a long time before she gets sick again!
Awwww, feel better soon, Allie. I hope you and Doug don't get it! I guess you have to save all your sick days for when she's sick.
