Abby has been feeling pretty rotten this week. She has a lot of congestion and was running a fever for several days. We took her to Children's South Thursday night and they told us it was just a cold. Kind of embarrassing when the doctor tells you it's just a cold (especially when I am a nurse). She looked so bad that I was scared not to take her to see someone. Her cold has led to a week of not sleeping. She is waking up about every one to two hours at night crying. I have been getting up with her several times a night because she is having trouble breathing while laying down :( It breaks my heart. She looks much better but we are still battling with congestion at night. I hope this will all go away soon and that we will get back to our normal nap and sleep schedule.
Speaking of naps...Abby is not napping! The last two days she has simply not been tired! She lays in her bed and talks the whole time and maybe nods off for about 30 minutes. I don't know what to do! She is wide awake. When I go in there to put her paci in she just stares at me and gives me a big smile.
We have had an eventful couple of weeks. I have a lot of new pictures of her eating rice cereal, Clara's birthday party, and our park outing this week! Check back soon.

We've been sick here too! Plugged in a humidifier tonight and Kai was scared of it...so much for that! Feel better little Abby!!
ReplyDeletehave you tried johnson's menthol bubble bath? it works wonders! every time wyatt has had a cold, i bathe him in that right before bed and it clears him right up. then i always use a humidifier and it helps keep them asleep and keep them clear. good luck! sick babies are no fun! hope abby feels better soon!
