Sick Again!"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s been a while since Yvonne or I last posted.&#160; But hopefully I can catch you all up for those who don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t see Caleb as often.<\/p>\n<p>Caleb started sleeping through the night at 12 and a half months old.&#160; It was great getting a full night\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s rest every night.&#160; And then after mommy\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s birthday weekend, he got sick, and those sleepless nights were back again.&#160; On August 12th, Caleb started getting a fever (around 101-102).&#160; He was so hot we had to strip him.&#160; We\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve never let our son watch so much TV in his life.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/baby.chriswong.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/08\/img-2448.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-right-width: 0px;

A few days later on Friday night, he was moaning and groaning and couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t settle himself to sleep.&#160; He didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t feel hot anymore, but felt cold.&#160; Yvonne took his temperature and it was 96.5, which is much worse than having a fever if you didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t know.<\/p>\n<p>Yvonne called up the pediatrician and we were able to get his temperature up a little.&#160; A few days in, we still didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t know what he had since he had know other symptoms other than a high fever and general grumpiness\/clingyness.&#160; We went in to see the on-call pediatrician that Saturday.&#160; She checked him out very briefly and diagnosed it as an ear infection.&#160; And that was strange to us, since he had no other symptoms.&#160; No cold.&#160; No rubbing the ears.&#160; No apparent ear pain at all.&#160; But that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s what she said.&#160; So she gave us a prescription for antibiotics.&#160; We didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t like this doctor by the way.<\/p>\n<p>So that Saturday, I was in charge of taking care of him while Yvonne was off doing her servant auction team stuff.&#160; His fever broke.&#160; He no longer had a low temperature.&#160; And his mood was much better since the previous day.&#160; But we started him on antibiotics anyways.&#160; Of course with antibiotics comes lots and lots of poop.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/baby.chriswong.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/08\/img-2466.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-right-width: 0px;

We thinking maybe he had an allergic reaction to something he ate or to the antibiotics.&#160; But he didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t seem to be itchy.&#160; And he didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t seem bother by it, which made it strange for us.&#160; He just seemed normal, but with bumps all over his body.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/baby.chriswong.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/08\/img-2464.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-right-width: 0px;

After a little research, we narrowed it down to roseola virus.&#160; His symptoms matched up with the symptoms of someone with roseola virus.&#160; High fever for a week, and then abrupt breaking of the fever, followed by bumps\/rash.&#160; We called the pediatrician again and scheduled another appointment with our normal pediatrician that Monday.&#160; Yup.&#160; It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s definitely roseola virus.<\/p>\n<p>After a few days, he got less and less clingy.&#160; And went back to sleep again!&#160; Full night\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s worth!&#160; Yay!<\/p>\n<p>Well\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6&#160; That only lasted a week, cause yesterday he got himself a cold.&#160; Last night, he was having a miserable time sleeping.&#160; Kept waking up every hour or so.&#160; And then Yvonne sucked the snot out of his with her mouth in the middle of the night to help him breathe.&#160; Yes.&#160; He\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s got a cold.&#160; Second illness in 2 weeks.&#160; Sucks to be Caleb.&#160; Sucks to be us going without sleep again.<\/p>\n<p>It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s my turn to watch him tonight, so I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m up writing this.&#160; He hasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t been bad so far.&#160; Only needed us once.&#160; But it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s early.&#160; And he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s making a lot of noise tonight.&#160; Can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t be comfortable for him.<\/p>\n<p>Go away sicknesses!<\/p>\n<p>Pictures (Things Caleb likes):<\/p>\n<p>He likes eating mommy\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s birthday cake (which he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not allowed to eat.&#160; He\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s allergic!)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/baby.chriswong.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/08\/img-2369.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-right-width: 0px;
