She seemed fine at home. She nursed at 1:30pm and then she fell asleep from 2pm to 4:30pm when she woke up she didn't seem quite like herself. Around 5pm she didn't seem as alert as usual and she seemed a little pale. I didn't think too much about it. Then at 5:20-5:30pm, my dad was holding her and she raised her lets up and made three groans like I never heard before and I knew something was wrong. I went to get her and she was extremely pale, she was clammy, and her head was wet. She didn't have a fever. She was lethargic and above her lip began to turn blue. She seemed as if she was ready to lose consciousness. I was afraid for her life and the thought did cross my mind that I was going to have to do CPR. I called the doctors office immediately. 10-15 minutes passed and she seemed to be coming around. I called the office back because no one returned my call. I did tell them at that point that she was coming around, but I still needed to talk to the Doctor on call. Doctor returned my call around 5:50-5:55pm. At this point, patient seemed like herself again and she nursed fine. By 6:30pm I gave her another dose of Tylenol, her coloring was back to normal and she was smiling again etc. I was told to watch her through the evening and call doctor back in the am. Patient was fine all evening and she seemed fine today 9/5/03 according to my husband and my parents. I called the office in the am and doctor thought it would be best to eliminate the pertussis vaccination. I will continue to watch her closely.
