Poor Will has felt awful for 3 days now with a stinking cold and a temperature as much as 38.8 degrees at one point. You feel so helpless for him because unfortunately all he can really do is survive it, sleep as much as possible and surface the other side feeling better.
Yesterday his right cheek was burning up and I was so worried about him, until Eddie had a rootle around in his mouth (searching for rusk remains) and found a tooth! As you can imagine, he was absolutely ecstatic – about the tooth of course, but also the fact he’d found it 🙂 It’s like a little piece of glass, a tiny glimmer of white at the bottom right. VERY exciting. It certainly explains the fever etc.
Even better – I can now spend yet more money on a baby toothbrush and paste for Will. Huzzah!
