My Baby Is Sick!
Lyric got sick last night. I have no idea what's up with her, but after dinner/bath she seemed kind of listless. I kept thinking she felt hot and I took her temp and sure enough, it was almost 102. Then it got higher and she was like delerious. She tossed and turned and cried and fussed... all in a haze of sleep. I don't think she knew what she was doing half the night. Finally around 6 I asked Jon if I could go to the couch to catch a few hours of sleep before I had to be at work. So he held her while she screamed and called Mama till she got tired and passed out.
Unfortunately, I overslept and got in late anyways, which SUCKS and I'm SO dragging today!
She still had almost 103 this morning, but Jon said it finally broke around 11. So she has a doctor's appointment today at 2 and if her fever comes back he is going to take her.
My poor little girl. I HATE it when she's sick and I hate it even more when I have to leave my crying, feverish baby because of work. Talk about mom guilt. I feel like a terrible mother, but i know it can't be helped. I really have to save all my vacation time for my trip to Belgium in October or I'll have to take time off without pay which wouldn't be fun at all. But that doesn't make me feel any better about leaving my princess when she is sick (or when she is well for that matter).
So this pregnancy has been a little different so far. We've now breached the 7 week mark and I still haven't thrown up. I feel nauseaus ALL the time, but no throwing up. I don't know what's worse though... well I do. The throwing up is worse because when I throw up it always comes out of my nose so I have to smell throw up for like 30 minutes after I puke, which makes me puke more!
So ya, yeah for no puking, but BLAH to constant nausea that doesn't let up, like EVER!
Let's end this blog with a picture of the cutest little nephew on the planet!

ugh! so sorry des (and lyric). you know, something very similar happened to conrad not too long ago. it was two freak days of high fever and sluggishness, then in the middle of the second night, he broke the fever and was back to his old self in no time. no explanation. though it was followed by a weird rash on his legs, but otherwise, it was a complete mystery to us. i'll pray God gives you wisdom and energy, and little lyric comfort.
