My Poor Baby
Bradley had a fever all weekend but I wrote it off as being connected to teething because he has been working on his molars lately. It wasn't until Wednesday morning that he developed a rash from head to toe and was all swollen in the face. Leaving out the details of taking him to the clinic and daycare, we found out that he had a reaction to the antibiotic that he had stopped taking a week and a half ago! The doctor said it was an allergy to penicillin and gave him Benadryl. The swelling is slowly going down and the rash is fading but it is not an immediate thing. Bradley is so sleepy with the medicine he is on but he is at least in a better mood. I had no idea that a reaction could be that delayed! At least we know now though. I will keep you posted as to what the doctor says when we get him tested for allergies.
