My poor boy woke up at 3 am with his first ever fever. I've been thankful that we made it this far with no sickness, but he was so miserable last night.
I could tell something was up by the way he was sleeping. Usually a hard still sleeper, I could hear him thrashing and whimpering for hours. He woke up for a bottle and I noticed his head was burning up so I stripped his footie jammies off, put just a onsie on him and brought him to our bed. Daddy helped me give him some pain reliever & fever reducer medicine. I tried to rock and cuddle him back to sleep with me but he just wanted to climb around. I let him be hoping he'd wear himself out, about 45 minutes later I laid him in his crib with a sippy cup of formula and about 5 minutes later he was out.
Thankfully, he woke up feeling much better today! Still a bit warm, but he's been acting like himself which is great!
