Again...

Jayden has had a fever since Saturday. Saturday she acted like her normal self, just slept a little more than usual. Sunday morning she was very clingy. Her temp was up to 102 and change but when the Tylenol was active she acted like herself. Today was a different story. Last night she whimpered through the entire night (something she has NEVER done, even as an infant). This morning she slept in bed with me and after she ate breakfast all she wanted to do was sit on my lap with her blankie. When her fever is at it's peak (just before the next dose of Tylenol she even gets the shakes. I started getting a little nervous since she has no other symptoms of a cold or the flu and called the Dr. They asked if she's had any ear drainage....well of course she does, this is Jayden; she had blood in her ears last week Monday and Tuesday. So to the Dr. we went. Dr. Green is not sure if this will turn into a cold or if it's her ears. She does have something going on with her left ear. We'll get the lab culture results back on Thursday. He said she may have a hole in her eardrum. So I guess this is just one tough cookie because she hasn't complained at all about ear pain, or anything else for that matter. She's just super cuddly which I am thoroughly enjoying. We will be saying our prayers that everything turns out okay; and that we can maybe get to the bottom of this ear thing, FINALLY!

Pictures of Jayden. If you look back through this blog I think you'll find this is the only picture of Jayden laying down with her eyes open. She does not sit let alone lay down....
