ER and high temp

Well last night after Mia woke up from her last nap at 6pm, she had a highhhhh temp of 105.5! Josh called me at the gym and I came right home b/c we've never seen it this high...very scary. We gave her a cool bath which she hated and cried during but a bottle of milk helped keep her in it for a few minutes. We also gave her some tylenol/motrin which we were doing since she got the high temp of 103 on Wed at noon. When we went to Urgent Care thurs night (b/c Mia's fever wasn't going down from 103), the doc there said to bring her in there or the ER if her temp gets worse or if she seems larthargic. She wasn't all that lathargic but def not herself w/ such a high temp. We ended up taking her to the ER right around 7pm (her temp went down to 102.5 there) only to be told the same thing the Urgent Care doc told us....it's viral and it will break eventually. The doc there said to give her tylenol and motrin at the same time b/c they work on different pathways. She also said to keep giving her a cool bath and by doing that and giving her the meds every 4 hours for tylenol and 6 for Motrin (that means waking her up out of her sleep :( ), her temp should break in the next day or two. Well we think it broke last night when we put her to bed. I noticed her head and back were all wet when we were "trying" to put her down and after taking her temp, we were happy to see it was back to normal. Too bad it took us 4x and almost two hours to her to stop screaming and fall asleep. At 2:30am, Josh went in to give her motrin and tylenol (what a nice hubby I have!) and her temp was still normal. :) He said she was soooo tired that she was sleeping on the changing table!

This morning, Mia is doing much better and her temp is still normal at 97. She is herself and eating which she has been doing since she has had the high temp but more playful today and less clingy. I don't what she had and the docs said it could have been anything. Thank god her temp is normal and she is Miss Mobile Mia again!
