My poor baby is so sick
We had yet another awful weekend. As some of you may have read DD was displaying signs of a bad cold with fever. Last night was the worst night ever, there was nothing I could do to console her. I was very tempted to go to the ER, but she didn't have a fever so we sat it out.
She woke up this morning fever free, but appeared to have a "black eye." I assumed it was from rubbing her eyes so much. Anyway I made an appt this morning to have her ears checked again. She apparently has yet another ear infection and periorbital cellulitis.
They gave her 600 mg of Augmentin (I'm on 875 mg, so that seems really high) and if her black eye isn't better by tomorrow morning they will admit her to the hospital for IV treatment.
He also suggested I keep her out of daycare for a minimum of 2 to 3 weeks. I have no family here, so that means taking a temporary leave of absence - which I hope my job is ok with because we can't live on one salary for too long.
I just pray they get her better. She's been on 4 different antibiotics for 4 weeks now and my heart is breaking.

do you have a relative that you can maybe fly in? It will probably be cheaper then going unpaid..

I'm not that far from family - just over an hour or so, but they all work too. Plus she's so miserable right now she doesn't want anyone but me.

Re: My poor baby is so sick
Is there anyway at all they can let you work from home for that time? What year did you have your DD? Did you use all of your FMLA time because you are entitled to that still if you didn't. Sorry you and DD are having such a rough time.

I'm certainly going to ask. They have been extremely flexible with me so far, so I'm hoping they continue their kindness. I was out from 11/16 until 3/12. Not sure if I have any FMLA left. I have to read up on it tonight.
Thanks for reminding me

Re: My poor baby is so sick
I'm sorry, I can only imagine how stressful and heartbreaking this must be for you. Maybe your DH can take some time off too if your job gives you a problem? I hope she feels better very soon!

Oh no Jodi Why dont you look into hiring a nanny for good? what about the girl that you were gonna hire for your 1 day at home? This daycare situation does not seem adequate at this time. Hope hannah feels better.
