Ok so its Sunday night and everything seems to be going ok!
Xavier has been in bed for 3 1/2 hours and we haven't heard from him, could things be better??
He has been fantastic over the last 2 days. Not sure why, but I don't care as long as he is back to his happy self. My money is on the a/b's, and the fact that he isn' t on them anymore. I googled 'cefaclor' which is the a/b that he has been on for the last 2 weeks, and yes it is a rare side effect but it does cause joint pain. It all kinda makes sense now; why he was so distressed when I tried to lay him across me to feed (must have hurt), why he would collapse to the floor crying when he was crawling and why he was constantly hitting and rubbing his head. It all makes sense He hasn't done any of that over the last 2 days, he has been so happy and content. He is even feeding!!! My supply didn't even drop off too bad, but I am offering him extra feeds to try to bring to up again.
He is still on the medication for the giardia, but I still doubt he had it (but not enough to stop the medication!!)
So I should find out the results from his blood tests tomorrow, I am sure that now they will come back all clear!!!
I am so, so, so happy that my precious little boy is on the mend. This last week has been one of the toughest I have had with the 2 kids, it was so heartbreaking knowing that something was wrong but now knowing what. I am so glad that I kept pushing and persisting. I hate to think that he could of been on the horrible stuff for any longer than he needed to be.
Tomorrow I am going to devote to my gorgeous little man. Grace has got a make up day for school so its just Xav & I. We have some shopping to do then we might curl up together for a luxurious nap.
Holding my breath
