So it's Saturday and Jeanine seems to be doing much better. We went back for yet another Pediatrician appointment this morning and since she STILL had a fever and was fussy after the previous 2 days' worth of antibiotic injections, she had to get a 3rd, poor baby! At least it was a different person giving it to her each day, so she didn't know what was going on, or have time to get riled up or sad before the actual needle stick. Today's was especially bad because this time it was only one nurse giving 2 shots, one in each leg, so it took longer and she did the I'm-not-breathing, face-turning-red, silent-scream for about 15 seconds! So, now we have to go back again on Monday for another fever check and if it's not gone they might admit her for further tests and IV antibiotics.
Last night we heard from the pediatrician at about 6:45 and she left a message saying that Jeanine's culture was growing E-Coli (don't ask me how she got that! I'm baffled on that one...) so it was important we get the infection gone as soon as possible. Please keep Jeanine in your prayers, she really needs to get some sleep so that she can start to heal, and start to heal so she can get some sleep! (And mommy needs sleep too...)
