Caleb had a fever on Monday and when we went to the pediatricion, they said that both his ears were infected. Kathy at work had told me time and time again to go to the doctors but I when I finally went, it made me feel like the worst mother in the world. They prescribed amoxicillin. That evening, Jay & I got sick with this viral gastroenteritis... I'll spare you all the details, but let's just say that it was gross.
The next day, Florice was kind enough to come and pick Caleb up for the day so that we could get some rest and she took care of the poor sick baby. That evening, due to some strange diapers, I called the pediatricion on call and Dr. Espinol suggested that I go to WakeMed's pediatric ER to have they take a look at Caleb. While we were there, since Jay and I were feeling
so poorly, we asked them to admit us as a family. (Little did I realize then that it was going to be $150/person according to my insurance!)So now it's Thursday and we've been out of commission for almost a week. It's times like these that I need my mommy! :(
And this is a photo of Caleb in his hospital gown (at home)...isn't he such a cutie pie?
