Dreams pov:
"her temperature gone back up," i sigh as i take the thermometer out of ivys ear, one hundred and four, higher than when she woke up,
"do you think we should take her to the doctor?" george asks sitting up feeling her forehead,
"yeah, she hasn't been sick like this since she was a newborn," i sigh combing my hands through her hair,
"maybe call your mom first she might know what to do?" he suggests,
"yeah i'll do that, can you take her?" he asks and i immediately open my arms, he hands me the sleeping baby who i lay down against my should, she snuggles even further into my neck and lets out a pained whine,
"you wanna cuddle with you papa?" i laugh adjusting the diaper on her waist, as she sleepily babbles nonsense,
i hear dreams phone beep as he dials his mom, "hi sweetheart what's up?" she asks,
"ivys sick, she's got a fever and she got sick all over george," he explains,
"awh that poor baby," she pouts,
"you wanna see her?" dream laughs,
"always," she says, dream takes the phone away from his ear and turns on the camera aiming it at us, i give the camera a smile then focus my attention back to soothing my daughter, "aren't they both just precious," she says wich makes me laugh since i'm currently the polar opposite of precious my hair is slightly damp and sticking out in every direction, i have massive eyes bags from the depressing mix of insomnia and crying i've had the last week and my face is pale from not leaving my room,
"their so perfect," dream smiles tilting his head and admiring me with a smug smile that says "i win life"
"anyways, what did you see ivy's temperature was?" she asks, snapping out of grandma mode and into nurse mode,
"one hundred and five," dream sighs reaching over and playing with one of ivys adorable little feet,
"oh god, what have you done to cool her down?" she asks,
"we gave her tylenol, we put a cold compact on her head, we gave her water, and after she threw up george and her had a cool shower," he says,
"okay do you know the name of your paediatrician?" she asks,
"no, ivy hast been properly sick since we moved here," he says,
"good god, george why did you choose him to have a child with?" she sighs making me laugh and dream to sit there with his mouth hanging open, "i'll look online for a good one and send you it in a sec, give ivy lots of cuddles for me," she smiles,
"we definitely will," i grin and she hangs up the phone, a couple minutes later dreams phones buzzes and a link to a paediatrician's office appears,
"okay it says it's half and hour away and it's open now," he says,
"can you call them to make an appointment? i'll get ivy ready," i say, already sitting up gently to not startle her,
"yeah perfect," he nods, i take ivy into her nursery and put her in a white body suit with little pink bows all over it and tiny white socks with pinks bows on the side of them, i then pack my bag with all of my stuff along with her bottle, a sippy cup with for her water, some snacks incase she gets hungry, a pink cardigan and hat that also match her outfit and her favourite teddy which i hand to her and she instantly smiles, even in her sleep,
"i told them about her temperature and they said they'll make her an appointment for this morning but since it's busy we might to be there waiting a while before they can fit us in," dream tells me walking into the room and picking up the bag leaving my hand free to hold ivy,
