Ugh, ugh ugh. Poor Junebug is sick again. His very first fever. Mr. E is rocking him and I am in the only room in the house that gets cell phone reception, hoping that the advice nurse calls us back at some point.
It just came on so fast. 1 pm, he was a cheerful happy baby. 2 pm, he was quietish. 3 pm, he was sleepy. 4 pm, he was crying too hard to nurse.
It's been a nice weekend until now.
ETA: Ear infection. Getting the amoxicillin now. :/ Wasn't breastfeeding meant to help with this sort of thing?

You can also ask your pediatrician for "otic drops" which are topical painkillers you can drip in his ear canal. It is unpopular at first, but works wonders.
