Anna Belle started having a runny nose on Thursday. She fell asleep at 5:30pm on our way home from work and I decided at 7:30 I should go change her into her PJ's and give her a bottle since she slept through dinner. When I got her out of bed she was burning up with a temperature of 102.7!! She then took 2 sips of her bottle and vomited.
It was a long hard night of crying, coughing like she had been smoking for 30 years, and lots of rocking and holding. At one point I put her in bed with us (which is a major no-no in our home however it beat having to get up every 30 minutes because she couldn't breathe) so she could sleep on my chest while I was sitting up. It was soo cute when I got her in the bed she looked at me then looked at Johnathon rolled off of me and crawled over to Johnathon sat on her knees and laid her head on his chest. He scooped her up and she was fast to sleep.
I stayed home Friday and got her into the Doctor where she was diagnosed with Bronchitis. My mom came with me and we had the joy of torturing her with a breathing treatment. Poor thing she is already easily startled by just about anything and then we had to strap a mask to her face attached to a machine that made noise...oh it was torture. She cried more from that then she did when she was tested for allergies.
She is definitely on the mend now. Especially after getting 14 hours of sleep last night!! She had a lot to catch up on. It has been great getting to spend so much quality time with her over the past 3 days...I just wish she didn't have to be sick.
In her sick chair. Relaxing in the Living Room.
On another note I have started reading Secrets of the Baby Whisperer by Tracy Hogg and I LOVE IT! It has really helped us to understand Anna Belle better. I haven't finished reading it yet but so far I'm ready to jump on the band-wagon.
