Do I ever get to STTN consistently??? Again???

LO is 17 months now. It's been one thing after the other for him. And now he is obviously not feeling very well as he screamed at 12am, then 1am, and he is still screaming on and off. He wanted me to lay there and he would quiet down but I had to leave and he is screaming bloody murder. I had to turn off my baby monitor and close the doors. I feel like a horrible horrible person but there is nothing I can do, and I don't want to lay there all night.

He started having a fever of 101.5 on Saturday night after 3 days of water activities (2 water days at daycare and we went to the spray park on Saturday). 101.8 the next morning but he act his normal self. He was fever free the entire day but got 102.4 before bedtime. Now he can't sleep, but definitely doesn't have a fever. (Very chilled forehead)

Judge me or not but I hv a dentist appt tomorrow at 8am which I can no longer cancel... So if he is fine in the morning I will take him to daycare, go to the dentist, come back and schedule an appt with the pediatrician.

I am just very upset. I thought we dodged the bullet for having tubes put in (after numerous ear infections and many ent visits, doc said we can wait becuz he was clear and that was 2 weeks ago), but now this... Which I am so scared they will tell me it is an ear infection tomorrow. If it were ear infection again we should schedule for surgery right away.

Sorry for rambling but just am very upset. Have you guys experienced with unhealthy LOs and does this ever end?????

2am now and I can still hear him crying.
