My poor baby woke up in the middle of the night the other night several times. He first woke up to his shivering and was very upset about it. He didn’t have a fever…so I got him warmed up, calmed down, and back to bed. He woke up again several times thru the night (this time with a fever) and each time was comical in nature and required reassurance, a drink and tucking him back in. Once, I found him in the hallway shutting his bedroom door claiming there was someone in his room. He then opened the door to show me all the animals in his room. We got some juice, shooed the animals away, and back to sleep he went. Again, he yelled for me and I found him in the living room commenting on all the animals running across the room and telling me that a Pig was in his bed again. Another time, he commented about the bubbles floating around his room.
After a few times, I relinquished all future wakings to hubby! Chris said that he commented on the animals again, but pointed out that they were all gone. We took him to the doctor sure that he had an ear infection...nope, Brady has strep throat. There goes our "free" pass back to daycare. He spent the rest of the day playing with Chris and not really sure why Chris was trying to be protective of him, because he was FINE. I wish I felt that good when I am sick...instead I get to suffer from the seasonal crud and get harrassed about swine flu!
After 24 hours on antibiotics, Brady is feeling great and no more hallucinations!
