My 4 year old woke up with a fever Saturday morning and I took him to urgent care and they did a strep and flu test. Flu was negative, strep was positive. Got some antibiotics and he’s taken 5 doses since Saturday and is still running a fever. He also has a very stuffy nose and doesn’t feel well at all. How long would you give the antibiotics to work before taking him back in. It’s been almost 48 hours on antibiotics now.

@fourkidsandababy, wow. That’s tough on those poor babies. My son is finally fever free for the first time since Saturday.
@fourkidsandababy, yes!!!! I really didn’t want to have to go back to the dr’s office and risk exposing us to anything else. The first coronavirus case was confirmed in my county today.
I would call his pediatrician and ask before making an appointment. Also flu tests range from 50-90% accuracy so he could possibly have the flu even though the test was negative.
That’s true. It’s just starting to worry me that he’s been running fever for so long.
@blueismycolor, yeah I get nervous with that stuff too. I know it’s different but my daughter had a double ear infection a month or so ago and it took the antibiotics a few days to make much of a difference. I would call and tell the doctor you’d really rather not bring him in if you don’t need to but that you were wondering if the lasting fever was something to be concerned about.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Trigger. Lost baby
Went in for my 20 week check up and found out our son had passed away. Nothing was wrong, my pregnancy has been going great. I'm so numb right now. I'll he delivering him later this week. I don't want to do this. I don't want to do this. Not before Christmas. How am I'm going to tell my kids?? My dear sweet baby boy. Why did this happen?

My husband and I aren’t exactly strangers when it comes to relationship challenges 💞. We have been together for 14 years and married for eight, so we’ve definitely gone through some growing pains as we navigated a long-distance relationship in college and our first year living together as a married 👫 couple.
But nothing has challenged our relationship quite like our first year as 👪 parents .

My 3 yr old gets strep every month. It depends on how bad his case is. Usually 3 to 4 days for the fever to go away.
