First ER Visit
Last Wednesday Kaden had her first trip to the ER. I received a phone call from day care about 3:30 saying Kaden had a fever of 106. Of course this made me panic. Her pediatrician told me to go to the ER. When I got to the daycare, Kaden's hair was soaking wet from sweat and she looked like she felt horrible. I made sure to ask the day care 3 times are you sure it said 106, because I had a hard time believing it was this high. They reconfirmed the temperature. So I did not want to take any chances, off to the ER we went. They ran several tests to see what could have caused the her temperature to get this high. I am not sure if the drawing of the blood, taking a urine sample, and the taking snot sample was more traumatic for me or Kaden. I had to hold back tears while I watched my poor baby scream. Thankfully all the tests came back negative. When we left the hospital her temperature was 101 and two days later the fever was completely gone. I am still not sure that her temperature was that high but it is better to be safe than sorry.
