Always trust a mother's instinct


So I mentioned in my (eternally long) post last night that I was concerned about Rebecca, because she just hadn't been herself. This morning, I just felt more uneasy about her, because she was really cranky and clingy. I asked Nanny Rebecca to keep a close eye on her and report in. She let me know that she was lethargic, wouldn't eat, and then immediately called to tell me that twice Rebecca cried out in her sleep during her nap and then immediately went back to sleep. Still no fever, no pulling on her ears, no cough or anything specific, but I got an appointment for her. So Ramy came home early, got her, and brought her to Loma Linda, and I met them at the doctor's office. Sure enough, ear infection. So we got 6 days of penicillin, and hopefully she'll be her normal affable self very soon.
