Yesterday was Ellie's four month check up. She was also due for her second round of immunizations. Ellie is 25 inches long and 14 pounds, 15 ounces - this puts her at roughly the 75th percentile for both. During the examination, she babbled a few words of wisdom at Dr. Betsy and tried to eat the stethoscope. Ellie also did wonderfully well with her shots - she didn't notice the first two (EM did a good job of distracting her) and the third resulted in only minor, short-lived crying.
Ellie was a little fussy for the rest of the day, but it was really no big deal. Things changed around 12:30am. Our little princess, who does a great job of sleeping through the night, woke up very cranky and with a high fever. Those conditions, unfortunately, have persisted throughout most of the day. We've been in touch with the doctor, and we are monitoring her and comforting her the best we can. So we'll see how it goes. But, right now, all I can think to say is poor baby.
