On Tuesday (July 5th), Austen woke up in the wee hours of the morning with a high fever. The next day, the doctor diagnosed her with an ear and throat infection and prescribed antibiotics. Austen was very lethargic, barely moving, only wanting to sit with Mommy or Daddy and watch Baby Einstein videos. It was a lot of trouble getting her to drink and she refused all food. After about 24 hours, her fever broke and she began the road back to normalcy.
Today, her drinking, eating and playing have returned to normal — but there’s still some clingyness and fussiness due to teething.
