Red spots = Rash :(


Emery has a rash. He has little red spots on his legs and butt and stomach. It just appeared out of no where last night and was still there this morning. When I took him today to get his flu shots we got to see Dr. Coats. She said it looks like nothing to be worried about, but rather the start of a virus. She said the virus might come in the form of a cold, fever, diarrhea...she doesn't know. She said also that the rash might just go away without any harm. She checked his vitals and he's looking good. No fever and other than being a bit fussy from the teething he isn't sick. She said he would be just fine if we went ahead with the flu shots, so we got them. Poor little boy. It's sad to see him a mess! Teething, rash, and two shots in one day is just too much! He didn't want to take a nap this afternoon but finally crashed after I held and rocked him for awhile. He's up now and seems a bit better but we'll see how tonight goes! At least he gave me a smile for the picture :)
