Just got back from the pediatrician's office to make sure Addi wasn't dehydrated and he said to keep trying pedialyte or watered down Gatorade and to put her on both Motrin and Tylenol at the same time so that her throat won't hurt so much that she won't drink anything. Her throat isn't worse, which is what he expected but it's still pretty nasty. She lost some weight (went from 18.6 to 17.13) but he thinks that she will get thirsty and drink enough to be okay and told us to bring her back it she doesn't throughout the day. He showed me a couple of tricks to get some fluids in her. He was glad we brought her in and assured me that I'm not a paranoid worry-wort and that without both pain meds she probably would have become dehydrated.
On another more happy note, Addi's birthday invitations just came in!
