Turns out he had the flu.

We also plan to get the H1N1 shots. I am generally cautious about vaccines, and like to read a lot about them and make the decision whether to get one on a case-by-case basis. I am very pro-flu vaccine, however, because my youngest was hospitalized for a week when she was 8 months old with RSV and that was the worst week of my life! I never want to go through having a young child hospitalized with a flu-like illness again - to me, that vaccine is worth the small risk of side effects.TxMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02064567918789616816noreply@blogger.com
