TODAY EVEN THOUGH SHE IS 7 MONTHS WE TOOK HER TO GET HER 6 MONTH SHOTS/IMMUNIZATIONS.. WE WAITED UNTIL NOW BECAUSE LAST MONTH WAS JUST TO CHAOTIC! SO SHE WAS FINE UP UNTIL ABOUT 8PM. SHE STARTED GETTING WEIRD AND FUSSY AND REALLY REALLY WARM. I GAVE HER SOME MOTRIN THEN CHECKED HER TEMP... 103! OH MY GOD I FREAKED PANICKED, CRIED... THIS WAS HER FIRST FEVER SINCE COMING INTO THIS CRAZY LIFE AND I WAS JUST REALLY SCARED FOR HER BECAUSE THEN SHE BROKE OUT INTO CHILLS, STARTED SHAKING AND GOT REALLY DELIRIOUS, YOU COULD SEE IT IN HER FACE THAT SHE WASN'T SEEING STRAIGHT. IT WAS SO CREEPY SCARY! WE CALLED KENNETHS PARENTS.... THANK GOD THEY LIVE NEXT DOOR, HIS MOM AGREED WE SHOULD TAKE HER TO THE ER AT INSTA CARE BECAUSE WE ALL WERE VERY ANTI THE CLOSEST HOSPITAL (PIONEER)
SO THEY WATCHED CHLOE WHILE WE SPED TO IHC. THEY TOOK HER RIGHT AWAY, THE GUY ASKED ME IF WE HAD INSURANCE, I SAID NO WE BOTH ARE RECENTLY LAYED OFF AND HAVEN'T HAD THE CHANCE TO APPLY FOR CHIP FOR THE GIRLS (WAS PLANNING ON IT TODAY WHILE AT THE CLINIC BUT APPARENTLY THEY TOOK THE WEEK OFF??... WIERD.) ANYWAY, HE SAYS WELL IT'S A $75 COPAY AND A MIN OF $140 - $440 DEPENDING ON WHAT IS PERFORMED WHICH THAT WILL BE MAILED TO YOU, I SAID SWEET HERE'S MY DEBIT CARD GET HER IN!! (REALLY DID HE THINK I WAS GOING TO PUT A PRICE ON MY SWEET BABYS LIFE? EFF NO) ANYWAY THEY TOOK HER IN AND THE MOTRIN WE HAD GIVEN HER BROUGHT HER TEMP TO 99!!! SHE WAS SMILING, BABBLING,COOING, A HEALTHY 21 CHUNKY LBS, SWEET AND HAPPY BY THE TIME WE LEFT. THEY PRETTY MUCH DID NOTHING BUT SAY OH WELL HER FEVERS GONE DOWN AND SHE'S GOOD TO GO.. I SAID, NORMALLY I WOULDN'T TAKE MY KIDS IN FOR A FEVER BUT THE FACT THAT SHE WAS ACTING COOKOO, WAS SHAKING AND SEEING MONKEYS HAD US VERY CONCERNED. SHE SAID IT'S NORMAL FOR KIDS TO GET DELIRIOUS WITH A FEVER.... OH WOW NICE TO KNOW!!! WELL AT LEAST WE KNOW SHE'S TOTALLY FINE AND IT WAS WORTH EVERY PENNY TO HEAR THEM SAY SHE'S GOOD... HMMM KIND OF CURIOUS WHAT RANGE OF $140 - $440 THE BILL WILL BE SINCE THEY DIDN'T REALLY DO ANYTYHING BUT GET A KICK OUT OF HOW CHUNKY AND CUTE SHE WAS! REGARDLESS SHE'S HOME AND SLEEPING AND POUNDING DOWN JUICE!!! LOVE MY BABY LEAH XOXO

Oh my gosh that would scare the crap out of me! so glad she is ok!
So so scary! I am so happy that it turned out to be nothing. I dread that first "real" sickness for baby Claire! Love the healthy 21 chunky lb Leah :)
Scary Misty! I would have done the same thing. I'm glad she is ok. I always dread taking my kids to get their immunizations, because you pretty much know the fever is on it's way.
I am glad she is OK and not seeing monkeys anymore, it is better to be safe and take her in like you did, I'm sorry you don't have insurance to cover it though!
IT'S OK ABOUT THE INSURANCE. THEY WILL LET US GET ON A PAYMENT PLAN AFTER WE BRING OUR PAYCHECK STUBS IN... OH WAIT WE DON'T HAVE ANY HAHAHAHA. WHICH WILL MAKE IT THAT MUCH EASIER TO GET ON ONE.
Oh i'm so glad she's OK! I know how scary that can be and no one deserves to go through anything like that. I had to wait until my 3rd to have a real scare. Here's to no more scares!
