ear infection #1, is my bet

The Dillo's been rockin' the snotty nose all week, and was up for an hour in the night Weds., Thurs., and Friday coughing, and today hit fussy, and promptly developed a 101 fever. It's nice to have placid kids, so you can tell when they are sick.

We've given him Tylenol and he's better if a bit fratchety still. It's the doctor in the AM. While I am so much more confident in my doctor mommy skills thi time around, I still love the medical section of the Dr. Sears website - concise, pratical decriptions of illnesses and especially how to distinguish them, what symptoms indicate a need for concern and what are just uncomfortable. And the dosage charts, so useful. Parents, do bookmark it. http://www.askdrsears.com/html/8/T081600.asp

Thank you for the link! I'm off to figure out what's up with the snot-monster Aidan, who turns 4 tomorrow!
