The last week hasn’t been so good at my house. My daughter has had a fever for days and we just can’t get it to break. I’ve taken her to the doctor twice already but they insist it’s just a virus. She has a big white spot in her throat now but they say since the rapid strep test didn’t come back positive, they won’t do anything. It’s so frustrating. The fever is going up to a little over 103 so it’s no small fever either. I’d hate to see how high it would go if she wasn’t taking the Tylenol and Ibuprofen. I’m thinking we might head to urgent care again in the morning, if we make it through the night without going to the ER.
Work has been extremely busy too and I just can’t get caught up. I was planning on going in tomorrow but with my daughter being sick, I’ll be staying home. No getting anything extra done this weekend!
Now the focus part. I had all day to work on any room in my house since all plans had to be cancelled. I did a load of dishes and worked on the counter a little bit. But that’s it. We sat on the couch and literally watched movies all day. I’m supposed to do a few things tomorrow so we’ll see how that goes. Sorry for rambling on but I haven’t gotten much sleep in the last few days.
🙁 For the sore throat, can she tolerate hot honey and lemon??
The dr can give you a “magic wash” for her mouth sores. It has milk magnesia, and lidocaine in it. And I forgot the other ingredient. When PP had them for a week, finally the magic wash cured them, and she was able to eat.
Yep! That’s exactly what they gave her! Magic Mouthwash. Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to get her to use it more than a couple times.
When she gets hungry enough, she will!

Poor baby! Hope she feels better soon.
Thanks! I hope so too! This is terrible.
