Earlier in the day I got a message from daycare that Madelyn had a low grade temp of 100.3. Not high enough to go home but they just wanted me to be aware as they knew we were leaving for San Francisco the next day. Isn't this how it always happens?!?! I didn't hear anything else from daycare so I was relieved that she must not have been any worse.
When I picked Madelyn up from daycare, she walked over to me and she looked awful. Her eyes were mattery and she looked exhausted. Everyone in the room said they thought her eye drainage was allergies. I'm not an expert but it sure looked like pink eye to me.
We said our good-byes as it was Madelyn's last day at this daycare. We were sad to leave some of the staff as they have been so good to Madelyn and I have become friends with them but we needed to make a change and I knew we would all make new friends at the new daycare.
Instead of going home, we headed to the dr.'s office. Sure enough, pink eye and an ear infection! We went 3 weeks and 3 days between ear infections this time but thankfully this time only one ear was infected. Since she was on drops for her ears they gave her the Augmentin antibiotic for her eyes. He said eye drops would counteract the ear drops and we definitely did not need that.
The good news is that at least we were able to get Madelyn on meds and on her way to feeling 100% before she took off for Owatonna. She is staying at my parents until Sat while Ryan & I head to San Fran.
