Poor baby has been sick, sick, sick!! She got a cough this weekend, and it was just dry and
infrequent. Monday when I picked her up from daycare she sounded barky. She was also coughing up stuff, and the staff told me that a full HALF of the kids in her room were out with either ear infections, pneumonia, or RSV. Great... She coughed through the night, and Brett was home with her in the morning Tuesday. He called to let me know she was running a temp (101) and he didn't want to take her to daycare. When I got home she looked terrible! She had big red rings around her eyes, she had a runny nose, drooling, and coughing up gunk. Brett did the best he could to make her feel better, but this was beyond kisses and hugs!
I took her to the doctor and after a bunch of tests (have you ever seen them do a chest x-ray on a baby? It involves a plastic tube thing to hold her down...) we left with a few new things to worry about: she has a right ear infection, and pneumonia, and RSV.
So now we're doing nebulizers, antibiotics and tylenol to help keep the fever down. She's been really grouchy, and I can't blame her. This is too much for her little system to handle! She's out of daycare for the rest of the week, so Brett & I are switching off work/school schedules. The good news is that we got her 6 month pictures back FINALLY! We ordered them yesterday so hopefully the prints will be in soon so everyone can have their pictures. Here's a few to sneak a peek at:
Have a great week! Happy Valentines day!!
