I've never seen anyone having seizures. I do have several siblings younger than me and I looked after them when they were babies but never did I see them having one. My baby is running a fever of 101.8 since yesterday morning. All day she was just fine, playing when her temperature go down and want to be curled up when she is hot, that's it.
At almost eleven pm last night, I signed out from the computer and I had her with me sleeping in my arms, I put her down but then moments later she woke up and asking for UP. I took her out the crib, brought to the bed and guess what happen? It was the scariest and weirdest thing happened to her. I was still holding her in my arms when her eyes suddenly went to the left as if she was looking at something but she didn't, her whole body went limp, right hand was jerking and stayed like that for 2 minutes according to my husband.
I was panicking, we were both panicking because it was her very first time she had seizures. I told my husband we need to go to the hospital right away. So we landed in ER at Cook Children's Hospital at past 11 and yes she was still running a high fever. Geeeez it was all so scary and hope it won't happen again.
We made it home at almost two o'clock, so sleepy and worry no more because the doctor assured us it is common for children ages 6 months to three years to have seizures. Now I am like a dead person up and awake but floating because I got no enough sleep from last night.
