Happy Birthday Mommy...Jacob has a fever!
Posted by Missy Roberts at 9:31 PM About Jake
Sunday was my birthday (32!). Saturday we had some family over for pizza and pie and had a good time. Jacob had a great time visiting with everyone. He had such a great time that he didn't want to take his afternoon nap. He was so tired, but determined to stay up and play with his cousins and aunts and uncles. He was so funny!
On Sunday, Jacob woke up late (8:30) mostly because he kept his daddy up most of the night. We went to a birthday party for his friend, Christian. Jacob was pretty mellow at the party. He really wasn't even in the mood to play even though his friend Drew was there too! He actually fell asleep in his daddy's arms during the party...very unusual for him. After the party, Nani and Papa came over to watch Jacob so daddy could take me out for my birthday. We had a great time together. We went to see a movie and then got some ice cream...yum yum. When we got home, Jacob was still awake and when I picked him up, he felt really hot. I kept feeling his head and really thought he had a fever. After my parents left we took Jacob's temp and it was 100.7. So we gave him some tylenol and he slept with me that night. He was pretty restless all night and woke up with a 100.6 temp. During the day he was a little less like himself. he still played, but he also slept a lot more than usual. He was also coughing a little bit. In the afternoon his temp had gone down to 99.3 so I thought he was getting better but then daddy took his temp right before dinner and it was 101. So more tylenol and then a little while later he went to sleep. I hope he is not getting sick. I'm hoping that the temp is from teething. If he still has a temp tomorrow I will call the doctor. He has a fairly good apetite, though he didn't finish all of his bottles today, except for his night bottle.
I hope he is feeling better tomorrow...so until then...mommy and daddy love you
