Scary Fever

Aiden was perfectly fine when I dropped him off at daycare on Monday morning, but he started running nose along with a little coughing when I picked him up that evening. Then starting on Tuesday noon, he registered 103.9 temp in the ear, had motrin and the temp was manageable on Tuesday. Then yesterday, he started fever around noon but was around 102.9 and had motrin again. By around 4PM, his temp went up to 104.3 and he was really clingy. Another higher dose motrin as suggested by the pediatrician was given around 7:20 last night and half hour later, the temp was 104.4. I got really scared and called the oncall doctor and was told to alternate between 100mg motrin and 160 mg tylenol. Around midnight, he woke up by coughing and wanted water. I checked his temp, it was 102.2 again and I gave him tylenol. Then he woke up around 4:20 this morning crying. I took him to the big bed with me and checked the temp again and it registered 100.9. But he was really breathing heavily due to all the congestion. Then he woke up again around 6am and checked the temp, it was around 102, Motrin was given again and finally his temp went down to 99.7. Will have to see how he does today. I was told to bring him back in if he still has fever on Friday which follows 3 days rule. But surely the high temp scares me!! What a restless night for Aiden and me!!!
