Our Poor Little Sick Boy

Camden is sick! And really sick this time, not just an annoying cold. :( I've never seen my precious boy feel as bad as he has the past few days. He's had a cold the past few weeks and on Tuesday, I thought he was not acting like himself and decided to take him to the doctor. He wasn't running fever, but something clearly was off in my opinion. The doctor took a look and said his throat was a little red, but she thought he was just getting over a cold. She mentioned strep, but said that babies hardly ever get it and he was fever-free. Feeling like a crazy woman, we went home. As luck has it, he started running fever that night. The next day, Camden slept for almost 5 hours for his morning nap and I finally woke him. Clearly something was off! He also continued to run fever. The next morning when he woke up with a fever again, we went back to the doctor. This time she did tests for step and flu...and the results: HE HAS BOTH! Bless his heart; he is one sick little guy! That afternoon he took another marathon 5 hour nap before I woke him. He is taking amoxicillin and tamiflu...not a huge fan of either! We can tell he is improving, but is still not himself. It is so pitiful to watch! For those of you who know Cam well, he is not a cuddler...he is way to active for that. However, he has been these past few days. You know he is tired, because he will crawl over and put his head on you. Breaks my heart! He also is not eating well which has made him pretty weak. We've tried to get him to walk a couple of times, but his little body trembles. Lots of prayers are going up that he'll be better really soon!

Sweet little boy sleeping away

All the meds...Cam is not a fan!
Too tired to hold his head up while watching "Jack's Big Music Show." Camden has gotten to watch a little more TV than normal during this sickness!

This may not be a big deal to many of you, but my baby boy has only slept on me TWICE before this! So tired! (Disclamer: Please don't mind how I look...its been a long few days!)
