The poor little guy had just been whiny and clingy all weekend. At first we just thought he was teething because he was running a low fever and drooling a lot, but after two full days of fever we decided to take him to the pediatrician, and sure enough he had fluid in both ears. And if the double ear infection wasn't enough, he also developed this terrible looking rash on his forehead - the pediatrician didn't really know exactly what it was other that it was some type of bacterial infection.
I ended up having to work from home most of the week because of the fever (can't go to school with a temp over 100 degrees) and also the rash - we didn't really know if it was contagious or not.
I felt so bad for him - it is amazing how quickly they bounce back though. After his first couple doses of the antibiotic he was back to his old self :) And I am thankful this was his first at almost 16 months - hopefully he won't have to go though this many more times!
Awwwwh poor baby! He had a rough week for sure, so glad he's back feeling well. We surely did have fun with you this past Saturday. Love u so very much little Wesley man!
