My baby has pneumonia!!

So as some of you fellow Facebookers know...my baby girl, Natalie, was diagnosed with pneumonia Thursday. She had a very high fever (104.3F) and was lethargic and didn't want to eat. She is drinking now and has diarrhea and was put on antibiotics and Motrin. Her fever hasn't gone below 102F even with the Motrin. Her breathing and coughing are mucous-y. I'm letting you all know this in case any of your children come down with these symptoms so you will be aware and can take care of them. Oh and it all started out with a little cold (runny nose, coughing, congestion) the sudden fever is what alarmed me to something more serious.

We are on day 2 of antibiotics and Motrin and she isn't getting any better...my poor baby! She isn't eating at all and barely drinking...so alas I am nowhere to be found on here...(its so much easier to keep everyone updated on Facebook)...
