I thought we were over being sick, that is until I felt a tickle in my throat and knew it was about to start all over again. I guess hand sanitizer doesn't work so well when you have a baby in the house that puts EVERYTHING in their mouth and doesn't know how to cover her mouth when she sneezes or coughs!!
Last night I was up all night with Samantha. It was a very scary night. She woke up gasping for breath. I ran in her room and grabbed her out of bed. I lifted up her shirt and checked her breathing which was very labored and you could count every rib as she breathed in and out. It was very reminiscent of when Logan had RSV as a baby. Luckily we have a nebulizer so I grabbed it and hooked everything up. I think she must have croup because she kept coughing and it sure sounded like we had a dog in the room.
I gave her two treatments, but she was still having a really hard time breathing and she was freaking out. We bundled up in our coats and blankets and went outside and sat on the porch. After about 20 minutes things were really sounding better so we came back inside and watched The Little Rascals until we fell asleep on the couch together.
Where was Trevor this whole time you ask? ASLEEP! I tried to wake him up, but he sleeps so soundly it is a wasted effort to even try.
oh my word! that sounds so scary!!! i am glad you are all OK. stop getting sick!!! :)

How is Samantha doing now? I hope it's not whooping cough! Can you tell I'm paranoid, because of Corie? Mike and Trevor are the same! Couldn't get them to wake up in the house was on fire! LOL!
ReplyDeleteCroup sucks. Jadan had 2 really bad bouts of it last year. It was terrifying. Hope Samantha is feeling better :)
ReplyDeleteI hope she is feeling better. Watch the labored breathing. It could be pnemonia (sp?). But I hope not.
