Raise your hand if you also have a sick kid whose fever keeps spiking an your worried this season sucks
I also gave her a vitamin c pack earlier with honey
Honey is so great for coughs. They should be able to do a full panel just from 2 swabs for all the yucky viruses and strep. I would call pedi for sure. Def needs a Covid test.
Shes sleeping but ill check her again in about an hour
@teetw0608, what are her symptoms? I promise you fevers are not scary. They’re beneficial. Google it if you don’t take my word. But if it truly was 104 that for me would warrant a pediatrician visit to double check for nothing bacterial going on. Please breathe unless she’s known for febrile seizures in r some other medical issue it’s rare for a fever to harm someone. They’re generally beneficial. But at 104 I would have treated it too. Like you did. But at 101 just get some sleep. That’s a low grade fever.
@whereswaldo i believe you im so glad its coming down but she has a dry cough an sore throat an fever
@teetw0608, the flu is running around like wild fire. They said it’s the worst seasons they’ve seen in a decade. But it could also be strep. I’d have her tested tomorrow so you know what you’re dealing with.
I’d just let her sleep at this point if it’s 101.
@teetw0608, I would check now just to make sure it isn’t rising. Also she shouldn’t be sleeping with any heavy blankets or anything. A sheet only and light weight jammies. If she is still 104, I would give motrin now then rotate every 4 hours.
@teetw0608, potatoes in the feet is a wives tale lol save your food girl
@teetw0608, ALSO it’s very important to make sure you’re dosing her properly by weight with both Tylenol and motrin. The weight guide is on the bottles. Under dosing can inhibit the meds from doing anything and overdosing can cause kidney/liver damage.
I always get sick right after but i def believe u wen u say it dosent cover every strain it seems like this season is really aggressive
@momgroupreject youd never think youd get it in the summer im glad ur ok
@teetw0608, it’s bc everyone was masking up until like March of last year then things went crazy. It’s about the same for the early onset of flu and RSV this year. At least here it is.
@momgroupreject ppl said the hospital in Ohio is full of babies with RV
Omg she just got the flu shot this is why i dont get it 😞
You can’t get sick from the flu shot. It also doesn’t cover every strain.
🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️ day 5 of the flu and both of them just spiked fevers again
@damnitred, like K has flu A she could have flu B now.

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
