No Pictures, No fun

This weekend was rough for Charlotte. Saturday Grammy left to go home to South Carolina. Then it all went down hill. Mom and Dad and Charlotte had dinner plans for Saturday night. By 2pm Mom wasn't feeling well. She was achey and tired and hot. Soon after Charlotte started getting crankey and started crying. By 4pm Mom was really not feeling well. Charlotte was also getting worse. By 6pm Mom had a 102 fever and Charlotte was refusing to eat and just crying. Dad of course was pulling what little hair he had left out of his head.

After a few calls to nurse on call for Charlotte it was determined she was probably ok. We took her temperature a few times and while it was a little high, not enough to be concerned. Mom on the other hand was told she might have mastitis. Dad did his best to take care of Charlotte saturday night. Rocking her to sleep on his chest. She slept with him most of the night.

Sunday mom called her doctor and she confirmed she had mastitis. She is now on antibiotics and hopefully will be fine by the end of the week. Charlotte on the other hand is still being extremely fussy. Her doctor said to keep an eye on her. Of course we have solicited our mom friends to see what they think. A few ideas below:

Growing Pains
Gas
Acid Reflux (however she is already on Zantac)
Over stimulation
Over tired
Lack of Viatmin D
Allergies to milk
Allergies to Spaghetti Sauce
Allergies to salad
Stress
Conkus

We can't figure it out and hope it passes soon. I keep telling her "no one likes a crying baby" and to "stop acting like a baby" but I don't think she get's it.
