Well, I think we have finally rounded the sickness corner. After my last post I thought we were in the clear and were going to be done with sickness. Then late Tuesday night, Emi started sneezing and coughing and then as the day progressed on Wed, she got more and more hoarse and then started not breathing well. So I took her in and yes, RSV for Emi. For someone over 6 months, thats not really that big of a deal but for 8 week olds, it can often mean the hospital. Thankfully, we caught it really early and our pediatrician, whom we LOVE, gave her some medicine which helped her breathing almost immediately. She still was super hoarse, coughed a lot (and caused herself to throw up quite often because of it), and was really congested, but she could breath and we were able to stay out of the hospital. She had the most sad cry but is now almost over it and is getting back to her normal self. She continues to be the sweetest baby I know. We love her so much.
I feel like we have officially rounded the corner and pretty soon we won't be banned from seeing friends because of the fear of passing on all the sicknesses we have had over the past 3 weeks!
I have some really fun pictures to post as soon as I can pick which ones to post so stay tuned...
