Lovely. This morning I noticed that Cadence had a bit of a runny nose. She was acting pretty normal all day, but when she got up from her nap a little while ago she was coughing and her throat was sounding scratchy when she talked.
This afternoon the older 2 went to the playground. When they came back, Tevin was complaining of a headache and Sam said her throat felt like it was closing up. We had Tevin lay down and rest for awhile and Sam got involved in something and wasn't saying anything. She's kind of a drama queen, so we just figured she was trying to get out the cleaning we were asking her to do. Tevin's head still hurt about an hour later, so I gave him some Tylenol and had him lay down again. We asked Sam to do something else and she started complaining about her throat again. Although now she's at baseball practice and has swimming lessons afterward, so I'm still wondering if she's just faking it.
I am kind of wondering if the 3 have anything to do with each other. As I sit here and think about it, those are 3 signs of strep. The nose/throat thing, headache, throat constriction. Blah. AND now Tevin says his throat feels weird when he breathes in and out.
The Quick Care closes in a half hour and I think they stop taking patients like 20 minutes before closing. We'll have to see how they feel in the morning and take them in then if need be. There haven't been any fevers. My only fear is that if I go into labor tonight, they could be restricted from seeing the baby.
