ohiominnie said:Has anyone in her class recently had strep?
Thanks OHMinnie & Virgil. I decided to call the ped's office when her temp started shooting up to 102. I've got an appt. this afternoon. I also gave her a dose of Motrin.
She has fever, swollen throat (not necessarily bright red) and stomach ache (that's what was making me think strep). And, she may have been exposed to someone with strep. Her best friend's mom is the director at the day care the girls go to. Savannah had a low-grade fever on Tues. afternoon when her mom picked her up from school. Her fever was gone on Wed. but she kept her out of school & brought her to day care with her. She & Emily played together Wed. afternoon. Well yesterday when we picked Ashley up, the asst. director said that the director had to leave to go get Savannah from school. She had a 104 temp so brought her to the dr. The dr. said that it was a serious sinus infection and possibly strep but they didn't do the test because it would be too painful and the antibiotics would kill it anyway.
So, we'll see! (Sorry, that was sort of long.)
