Yep. Our little man has it. What is Roseola you say?
Basically a high fever, followed by a measles-looking rash.
I hate how parenting is such a guessing game...
... teething? food allergy? ear infection? sick of mom?
Thanks to a trip to InstaCare we added a new word to our vocabulary: Roseola.
Thankfully his fever is gone and now his rash has to run its course.
In the meantime, we're trying to cope through horrific screaming fits all hours of the night!

Katie,
Our little girl Ava got that and she has gotten in a total of 4 times in the past year. We found the best thing that helps is a luke warm bath. Their fevers get so high, that they hate clothes, and sleeping is impossible. But she loved the Luke warm bath, it helped a lot. Good luck with it. We know how that goes over here...
I am soooo sorry for you guys! That sounds so scary! I hope you are at the tail end of it and poor adorable Tate feels better very quickly! It is always a guessing game and then when you have multiple kids, they all pass around sicknesses! I took Summer to docs today and she probably needs tubes in ears, etc. She probably needed them a year ago and you are so right-such a puzzle trying to help them feel better!
