Brandon's x-rays showed that he had Bronchitis. The doctore had us treat him with breathing treatments and antibotics. On Tuesday he was still weak and not feeling up to par to go to daycare (he did not have a fever)so he stayed at Grandma Kelley's for the day. He still struggled with eating however, he managed to get in about 13 oz of food that day. Tuesday night he woke up with a frighting cough and ended up on the recliner with mommy for the rest of the night. At 2 am he was running a fever of 100.1 and moaning so we gave him some Motrin. He fell asleep and woke up again at 6 am or so with a fever of 100.6 so we gave him some Tylenol and he drank a little bit. About 7 am he fell asleep until about 11:15 am. He woke up with a fever now ranging from 101.2 to 102.6 depending on how I checked. Brianna already had an appointment to check out her cough and to figure out what was causing it that day. So I called the doctor's nurse with concern that Brandon did not seem to be doing well at all. He would not take alot of fluid and hi fever was still rising even though he was on antibotics and had already taken Tylenol and Motrin. The nurse told me to bring him in also for the doctor to look at. I was ready to check him into the hospital. I had my bag and Brandon's bag packed ready to go. Once the doctor took one look at him she said he did not look good at all and that he looked better on Monday. His oxygen level was low in the upper 80 - low 90's however it went up to 94/95. I asked the doctor when do we consider putting him into the hospital to get some fluids into his system. She said today refering to Wednesday. She listened to Brianna and looked in her ears and saw that she had an ear infection which was causing her to cough especially when she laid down. So antibotics were ordered. Off to a cousin's house while mommy took Brandon to the ER.
So off to the ER mommy and Brandon went.
