Guest guest Posted May 29, 2006 Report Posted May 29, 2006 Last summer we noticed that Ella would over heat on warm summer days. She didn't get hives or heat rash, but she would get dark red (sometimes almost purplish) in the face and sweat profusely. She did very well in the heat though this weekend. I was worried about her in the heat-it was almost 100 degrees and humid here all weekend -but it's nearly impossible to keep her from tagging along with the other kids, and they are so active and loving the return of summer. Now that she's two, she is SO independent and thinks she can do anything that her older brother and sister can do. Thankfully we didn't have any issues with overheating (although lots of time was spent in the pool!), maybe she's getting better at regulating her body temp. Tomorrow will be 11 weeks since Ella's last fever...this has been just an amazing stretch. > > Hello wonderful people, > > I was wondering if you have any problems having your fever children > out in the heat?

Guest guest Posted May 30, 2006 Report Posted May 30, 2006 also sweats like crazy. Especially while sleeping! Once the wheather gets warmer I've noticed that when I check in on him before I head for bed his hair is often so wet he looks as if he has just showered. We've also had a couple incidents where is temp. has dropped down to 95 when we've left a fan blowing on him full blast. Ellyn Mom of possibly (5), Alyssa(8), and Kate(3) Philadelphia, PA Quote
Guest guest Posted May 30, 2006 Report Posted May 30, 2006 You know something, Kardyn has to wear warmer clothes when we have the air on. He doesn't even seem to realize that he is too cold. You can feel how cold he is when you pick him up. It is just so weird. This is really beginning to get strange. I am telling the ID doc about all this. I am hoping that soon they will be able to come up with something. Thanks and God bless, a and Kardyn > > also sweats like crazy. Especially while sleeping!
