Poor Emma

This past Friday, Emma started acting like something was wrong with her. She just wasn't herself. She would scream all day, and would not let me put her down. She would even fuss for a while before going to sleep.....which is not Emma at all. Then Saturday, Sunday, and Monday she was so irritable and fussy. Friday, she wouldn't even eat anything. She would take a bottle but thats all I could get in her. So I decided to take her to the doctor today and just make sure everything was ok....especially since her birthday party is coming up on Sunday. I didn't want her to be sick for that. The doctor said that she has pharyngitis. Which is basically a really sore throat. It was really red and very inflamed. She is also trying to cut 4-possible 5 teeth all at once!! No wonder she is in a bad mood. So the doctor said to keep giving her motrin every 6-8 hours and that will help the inflamation in her throat go down and also help with those teeth. We had noticed that her top gums were swollen but never thought there would have been 4 or 5 trying to cut through. I hope and pray that they pop through so that Emma can enjoy her birthday!
