Well the past 24 hours have been long, very long!  Last night when I was getting Dean ready for bed I noticed he felt warm.  So I took his temp and it was 101.6!  So I called the doctors office since there is no directions on how much Tylenol to give to a 6 week old.  So the doctor said give him .5ml every six hours and bring him in first thig in the morning.  So I called this morning and made an appt to see the doctor at 9:45am.  We went in and his temp was 100.0 .  The docs were rather concerned since he is under 8 weeks, he dosnt have a strong immune system yet.  So she said dont give him Tylenol and I want you to keep a close eye on him and call if anything gets worse and come back first thing tomorrow.  So we went home and about 2 hours later the doctor called and said she and his other doctor decided they wanted to do some blood work on him.  So, I took his temp and it was 100.4 and then I took him to the hospital to get his blood drawn and then we had to be back to the doctors office at 1:45.  We sat at the doctors office for 2 hours wait for all of the blood work to come back from the lab.  Everything checked out fine except his inflammation count was a bit elevated, but nothing to big.  So, we went home with still no answers and a baby with a fever.  So I have to take his temp every hour and monitor it closely and call the doctor on call tonight if anything changes.  So thats where I am right now, I;ll update tomorrow hopefully with some good news.
