so, if you’ve read my previous blog, you know somewhat what is going on with baby jonathan. well, i called his dr. thrursday about the problem. they wanted me to keep a log of what he ate that day, and call back in the morning to let them know. so, thats what i did. i called about 8 friday morning, and had to leave a message at nurses desk. he had had about 19 oz in 25 hours. definitely not his normal. they finally called me back at 2 that afternoon, after they had closed. i was annoyed bout that, of course. she said dr. was fine with it, but continue to keep a log over weekend, and call if it wasnt any better by monday. i asked if he could take several days to develop a reaction to the soy we had put him on, and she said it could, so there was a possibility. i kept thinking ear infection b/c he would cry everytime he started to eat, but he still wanted his pacifier, so that didnt make sense.
as the day went on, he still wasnt eating much. by around 530, he was very fussy, and not eating well still. gave him some tylenol to maybe help with whatever was wrong with him. he continued to get more upset, and i thought, what if something is wrong? what if it is his ears or throat? that combined with the fact that john is sick and cant give me a hand made me a little crazy!! by this time, he’d had 25 oz in 40 hours. not much at all.
im rambling, so i’ll try to wrap this up! i took him to urgent care, they dont see them this young, and suggested i go to er. so, off we went. everything checked out. no ear infections, no sore throats. they suggested taking him off the soy, making sure he stayed hydrated, and cont. tylenol if that seemed to help. he’s actually doing better this morning. hes had bout 8 oz since 5 am, and seems to be taking bottle better.
and it only cost me a $50 copay to find all this out…
