Long Night
I ended up going to bed around 11 pm last night, figuring I should get some sleep incase Lauryn wakes up and we have a night like the one before. I woke around 3 am, hearing Lloyd trying to calm her down. Around 1 am, he was getting ready to go to bed and she started to wake up. He very awesomely went to her right away so I didn't even hear her and wouldn't be woken up :) When I did get up a little later, I checked her temperature and it was still really high. I gave her another dose of tylenol, stripped her clothes off her and kept putting a cool wash cloth on her forehead and neck. Around 4:30 am she was asking for a bath so I ran a lukewarm bath and let her sit in for a few minutes. I put some cooler pajamas on her and got her back to bed around 5:20 am. She woke up an hours later and was standing up in her bed when I got in the room. She didn't seem fully awake so I helped her lay back down and she drifted back off to sleep. She woke up at 9:30 this morning and her temperature is going down! She seems a lot more energetic already. Let's just hope this is an actually recovery, unike yesterday when she seemed to be getting better, only to end up getting worse!
