So sick
On Friday I contacted Nicole's pediatrician about her cough. After describing her symptoms they told me to run her down to the ER to be checked out. I was of course a worry wart and nervous about this. Did I miss something, is something really wrong. All of these things went thru my mind. We were seen rather quickly at the ER, from what I could hear it was a baby filled day there. They gave Nicole her first chest x-ray and not her last she needs another one next week. The doc came into see us and said that Nicole has pneumonia and RSV. I was shocked. He said that she looks great her stats are good and she seems to be a really happy baby. But after looking at her films he saw something in her lungs. Oh my poor baby. The doc said that there was nothing I could have done differently for her. So now she is on amoxicilin. This whole week she has been eating only a little even though she loves to eat. Well today so far she is inhaling the food. I think this is a good sign. She didnt seem as fussy either. Now both me and Jake are sick. So much for pumping ourselves full of vitamins to ward off illness. I have never seen Jake sick this many times in all our years together combined. Hopefully we get well.
