Little Mini-Me has had a few colds before, but has never been down for the count with a fever like last night... after a day of practically no naps and a bedtime fever of 102, she was just a wreck. Today she is much better, but napping poorly due to congestion when she lies flat on her back.
When Mini-Me was small, I used to enjoy her growth spurts and the excuse to have a "nursing holiday", which basically meant I canceled everything in my schedule and sat around in my pajamas, watching TV all day while she nursed.
Today I planned a "sick day", in which I put her in the carseat (45 degree angle, better for breathing), drove to Target, and walked around until she fell asleep. Then I transferred her to the car, did the drive-through at In-n-Out burger, and read magazines in the parking lot until she woke up. It worked beautifully. Plus I got some errands done, ate lunch and even got some quiet reading time!
