Poorly Boy

Oren is poorly :o(

He seemed to come down with something on Saturday afternoon, just being very grumpy and off his food. By the evening he had a temp over 38 degrees and he kept crying during the night.
Sunday he was still cranky and by the evening he still hadnt really eaten, and his temperature had climbed to over 40 degrees. We had been giving him calpol but his temperature just kept coming back. DaddyB called NHS direct who got a nurse, and then a doctor to call us back and give us advice. Sunday night we were up several times with him and he just kept burning up and wanting cuddles.

Monday morning, he woke up just before 8am still wouldnt really eat, still screaming, still had a temperature of 40 degrees. I gave him medicine again and put him back to bed by 9am, rang DaddyB & rang to make a doc appointment for him at 11am. DaddyB came home from work, but Oren got up at 10am and his temperature was gone and he was happy playing… I felt like an idiot for calling DaddyB and making a doc appointment. We took him to the doc anyway, who confirmed that Oren seemed perfectly healthy and must have recovered from whatever he had.

Oren seemed ok for the rest of the morning, and then went for a nap at about 1pm. However, when he got up at 2pm his temperature was back to over 39 degrees and he was screaming his head off. We had to take him back to the doctor in the end.

Just been up again through the night with him last night, and he seems to still be poorly. We can only keep giving him the calpol and stuff until the end of the day, and then he is maxed on what he can have so Im hoping this fever breaks today.

Its a bit scary and heartbreaking because he is obviously not well and we cant do much to make it better :o( Get better soon little man...
