Well we finally got Avery into the doctor for his 9 month check up, he was 10 1/2 months, just a little late! He weighed in at 21# and 28 1/2 inches long. He was in the 50% for both and 25-50% for head size. Everything looked great! Then he got his polio and Hepatitis B shot. It took him a minute to realize what happened but then he let out a blood curdling scream with real tears. Poor guy...he's never gonna want to go back.
The next day I noticed he was feeling quite hot. Soooooo..I called the nurse and told him he had a fever of 101.5. She said not to be worried but to keep an eye on it and call if it gets worse. Soooo...that night at 11:30 I went to check on him. He was poopy and HOT. I changed his diaper and took his temp. It was 102.5. Jeremy called the doc and they said the shots should not have caused his fever and to bring him to the dr. in the morning.
All in all, it ended up being roseola. Nothing too serious but not comfortable for the Ave man who has to live with a fever on and off for a few days. And then possibly getting an uncomfortable rash we can't do anything to relieve.
