Yes that's right. Ryan had a high fever on the weekend.
He wasn't like his usual self the week before he got sick. He is usually a very good sleeper at night but he woke up a lot at night that week and wouldn't go back to sleep. He will be lying on his cot with one of us sitting in his bedroom but once we leave, he will cry. He ended up sleeping with us on our bed quite a lot that week.
He was at my parents' place the day he got sick. It was still manageable that day but he was really clingy and grumpy the next day and wouldn't stop crying at one stage. We decided to take him to A&E and ended up staying there for more than 2 hours. He had a high fever and they wanted us there till his temperature went down. He was given pamol and was only wearing his nappy but his temperature kept going up. Finally, they decided to give him a stronger drug. It was only after that his temperature went down. He was a completely different boy after that and was so noisy in the car when we were on our way home. I said he was high on drugs :)
He is still coughing and has a runny nose but other than that, he's fine. Although, I can't say the same for Ashley and myself. We are soooo tired as we haven't had any proper sleep for a while. It's terrible sleeping with Ryan. I was kicked in the chest and stomach and at one stage, he even slept on half my face! I don't know about Ashley but I need at least a week of not doing anything, except rest, relax and sleep to recover.
Anyway, I'm sure a lot of you will know that's one of the joys of being parents :)

ah yeah, that bring back so many sweet memory, kicking in the chest, little feet go onto your face, (Not) they sleep clockwise too did you know that? lol... poor Ryan... Zak was sick for a while too and we were send to Emergency after our GP check him out, a Dr was waiting in the hospital as they thought he look like he have Meningitis, this is just a few weeks ago...
