Yesterday was J's 2 month shots. We got home and we took a nap together once he calmed down. When we woke up he felt warm but that wasn't abnormal since he was napping on my chest. He cooled down some then later in the evening after he had been asleep in his crib I checked his temp again and it was 102.4...I freaked. DH called his mom (a nurse, she lives in a town just 25 min away) and she left work to come check J. I called the dr on call (not our dr, unfortunately) and that dr suggested that we just wait until that does of Tylenol kicked in, put a cool washcloth on his head and not hold him, let him cool down. If his fever increased or he continued to be fussy we were to call her back.
His temp went up to 103.2 so I called her and she told us to go to the ER. We were there for a few hours (with a HORRIBLE ER doctor btw...I wanted to punch him when he made fun of J's ears!) they did blood tests, his fever broke while we were there and his test results came back fine so we were sent home.
His temp remained normal the rest of the night (got home at 2am) and then just now his temp was up just a little bit...he'd been sleeping on my lap after he ate so I put him in his crib and will check him again in a little while. *sigh. I just want my little angel to be okay.
Did anyone else have a LO with a bad reaction to their shots??
