[quote=Anonymous]It infuriates me that the ER nurses treated you like you were being overly cautious. I've experienced this again and again with my LO -- doctors not listening to me because my LO looks healthy in a quick exam. Okay, but I'm telling you, there's something wrong! We see our kids all the time, and these people (professionals though they may be) see them for a few minutes. They need to remember to take what we say seriously. I love, love, love my ped because she does, but I have seen many other doctors who have not (and we later found out we were 100% right in feeling something wasn't right). OP, I'm so glad that your LO is okay and sorry for the scary experience! My LO was treated for meningitis as a newborn in the NICU because he showed signs 3 days after birth. It turned out to be nothing more than dehydration (!), but I was happy that they took it so seriously, even though we were freaked out and totally upset to have him in the NICU. [/quote]
