# Fever at night: who gave what, and when

At 02:45, one line: 38.9 °C, gave the syrup. The note keeps the time, so at 6 a.m. your partner reads it instead of waking you to ask.

## At a glance

- **For:** Parents taking turns with a sick child.
- **You keep:** One thread per illness, such as Mila’s fever, shared with your partner at Can add notes.
- **Nothing to set up:** One line at a time: the temperature, the medicine and how much, a photo of the rash, a short video of the cough.
- **The moment:** At 6 a.m. Sam reads “Gave the syrup, 5 ml” with its time, 02:45, and doesn’t have to wake you to ask.

## Before

Mila has had a fever since Saturday. You take the nights, Sam the mornings. At 6 a.m. he asks whether she had the syrup at two or at three, and you don’t remember. On Tuesday the doctor asks how high it went and for how many days, and the answers are in your texts to each other, between the shopping list and a photo of the thermometer.

## Why a thread, not texts to each other

### Every note has its time

You write the dose, and the note records when. Nobody has to remember whether it was two or three.

### Whoever is up writes

The other reads it on their own phone, in the same order.

### Ready for the doctor

Three days of temperatures, the rash in photos and the cough on video, in order. Show it on your phone, or save the thread as a PDF.
