It's a UTI

[dixeedeluxe]

My poor baby. 

7 days of a fever.  Suspected Roseola.  No rash came so MIL took her in today.  They were able to get a clean catch with a bag!  WHEW! 

10 days of Ceftin.  But if her fever doesn't go away in 2 days, we have to take her back.

Any experience with UTIs and the treatment?

So sad, glad they did figure it out though.

I don't have any experience except what I saw when I worked at the doctors office. Some medications don't work for some people so they always recheck to make sure it's gone. Hope she feels better soon!

[robinsparkles430]

Oh and they probably want you to watch the fever because UTIs can get bad if left untreated and they want to make sure the meds are helping. We had an older patient who had Sepsis because she didn't take her meds.

[dixeedeluxe]

Yeah, they told us to keep taking her temp. I do it in the morning at her diaper change because it's a true med-free reading.

I wonder if it hurts her to pee like it does for grown ups? I'm sure it does. And now I'm sure that's why she's been waking up when she's asleep. Because peeing hurts.

So glad they figured it out and it was relatively painless to get the urine.

Hope the meds start working quickly.

Poor girl! I hope she feels better very soon!

I'm glad that they didn't have to cath her and I hope she feels better ASAP!

[shevacc]

Poor kiddo! I hope she feels better very soon!

[twirlermom]

Poor baby Hopefully the meds start working quickly and she gets relief and better quickly!

[thedahliharpa]

Poor baby. I hope the meds kick in fast, which they likely will. H had a pretty painful one when she was little and the pain seemed to subside about 24 hours after her first dose.

Poor girl, hope she feels better soon. I know for me when I've had a UTI the pain gets better after 24 hours of taking the meds. I know when they test urine they try to see what bacteria it is so they can get the right med to work, so hopefully ceftin takes care of it.

[jfh]

Oh no, poor thing! Hope she feels better quickly.

[Beener]

Poor baby! Hope she gets better soon!

[kdrake8]

Poor poor sweetie. I hope she's feeling better very soon!

[careyalis]

Poor baby! Uti's are miserable

[dixeedeluxe]

I feel so terrible that she's been suffering like this for over a week. But I was following doctor's orders!

[angiekay84]

That's awful, poor thing! Hope she feels better quick.

[melis74]

Aww, I hope she feels better soon!

Lexi had one in december and was treated with amoxicillin for 10 days. She hasn't had any issues since.
