Update on the "big girl bed"

We put the bed up on Saturday and that night after rocking Meredith to sleep we laid her down in her new bed. All was well for exactly 1 hour. She slept and didn't make a sound. But at 11 pm she woke up screaming and Todd laid with his had on the bed for the next few hours. Around 4 am Meredith sat up in the bed screaming her head off and for good reason. I went to pick her up and she was burning up. I ran for the thermometer and sure enough she had a big fever, 102. Off I head for the baby Tylenol, (now here's just a thought, if a DR recommends that you give an infant Tylenol, why in the world does every bottle of medication say under 24 months consult a doctor?)

Anyway back to the story. I read on the bottle of Tylenol (not the one I bought in Guatemala, trying to figure out Spanish at 4 am didn't go so well.) and we gave her a small dose and it worked almost instantly. What a relief.

We kept a check on the fever for the rest of the day Sunday and it would spike up every 6 hours or so.

We did not make it to church, the nursery won't let her stay if she has had a fever 24 hours or less prior to drop off. So we laid around all day. Everything is fine now, she is just a little congested, but the DR said don't worry about it, just watch it to make sure it doesn't get worse.
