On Wednesday morning daycare called because R was running a fever of 100.9, (isn't crazy high but after two ER trips for allergies, they wanted to be on the safe side and send her home), by Thursday morning, it had gotten as high as 104.

We took her to the Dr and they said it was a virus (tested negative for the flu) that needed to run it's course. We've been alternating Tylenol and Motrin ever since and here we are 4 days later with no improvement. Poor girl can barely keep her eyes open yet can't fall asleep because she is so congested. We've tried everything to help comfort her (nose-frida, steam in bathroom...even broke the swing out of retirement!) but she just isn't getting any better.

I spoke to the Dr yesterday and she said the same thing that "it just takes time"....but really?!?! How long can this last? What is the longest your LO has ever had a fever and/or virus?

I just want my baby girl to get better...we've had such a rough few weeks, first with severe allergies and now with this demon virus. Gah.
