Started the day beating a fever, but had to table our zoo outing with the pouring rain.
Instead it was a lazy day in, Phil's BBQ and some outlet shopping. Not shabby

Spoiler alert- fever broke
Natalie starting fevering Wednesday night and (spoiler alert) it just broke now. 99.9F
I am so relieved
It's been crazy cuz she would throw up immediately after oral Tylenol. Like we can hear her stomach rumble & see it retract, then she would hurl. Nonstop vomiting, again and again. everything would come out.
This happened 3x, even with a little bit of Tylenol
I knew the dehydration coupled with temps of 101-102 would warrant an ER visi
Luckily, I remembered that Tylenol is available as a suppository. So James was running around town, found it at the 4th pharmacy
& we've been "controlling" her temps with that. At one point today, it was 104F but luckily not for long.
Between every 2 hour rectal temp checks, nursing every 1.5- 2 hours and nonstop cat naps (requiring us holding and soothing her).. I'm exhausted
And it's only 5 am

Off to the zoo
Celebrating with a little getaway to Carlsbad/ San Diego
Too bad Natalie's first fever started the night before the trip

35 weeks
Nonstop battling the sniffles
This weekend I'm working, so it's daddy daughter time. Heard she's super fussy and pretty much attached 24-7
Still a little chatter bug, saying umma on bad fussy mood & appa when happy. She started waving hello and goodbye, and even signing milk (we couple it with "yummy yummy") with her little hands.

Sleep Routine
I've given up
& resorted to holding, rocking /bouncing, singing Natalie to sleep, followed by standing for 5-10 mins, then her sleeping on me for 15-20 mins before I attempt to put her down
Or a variation of ^^the above, sometimes with baby wearing, sometimes James does part of it..
Every Night
Every single night..
