Getting Better

Jacob on Motrin!


Jacob is VERY sure he will be eating that cracker, yeah, yeah yeah.

Well, we're going on day 3 of up every hour or so at night. The doctor says it's viral tonsillitis so we just have to wait it out. It is fall break at Dan's school so he is able to stay home with him without having to cancel class, which is a big help. Jacob seems to be doing better. Last night, although he woke up quite a bit, it was not as hard because he was easier to get back to sleep, less agitated. We gave him Benedryl as the doctor suggested, so that helped him rest and I think he may not be having as much pain since he seemed to be drooling less and crying less at night. Motrin really hypes him up! In the first video you can see him playing a little peek-a-boo with Dan last night. On the Motrin he gets the best pain relief and even started eating crackers yesterday and this morning. This is an improvement over mostly just yogurt and bananas he's been eating the last couple of days. I'm hoping that we've turned the corner.
