Feeling Horrible.. sorry a little long
posted 26th Aug
So .. I took Preston whos almost 3mo now in to the Er last night because he was throwing a High temp of 104.3.. for no reason .. just plain out of the blue.. to see what the HECK was going on..
bc he had a small temp 99.4 to 100.2... nothing major.. but then after his nap.. he latched on me and WHOAA.. bout burned my nipple off.. seriously.. he was HOT but his body wasnt.. so i took him in and they ran test on him..
and all they can tell me is they THINK its a viral infection of some sort. bc his WBC are low and hes anemic and the dr asked if i was nursing or bottle feeding and she suggested that i might want to switch over to formula if his dr wont give him iron supplements.. well I have a huge issue with this .. seeing that i nursed all of my other 6kids.. and now i might have to quit bc of this small thing.. really Makes me feel horrible.. bc he enjoys nursing.. and i enjoy it as well.. he seems fine now. and the dr said its possible he is teething and thats how his body is responding to it.. bc his gums are Really really indented..
so hopefully i can stay away from the formula thing.. bc he needs the same nursing that the other kids got. and i duno why.. but every little thing that happenss 2 him/he doesnt act ok.. it throws me crying 2 the phone with my mom.. i never did this with any other child of mine.. so this just adds 2 the fustrations.
