Ramsey started getting sick with a little cough the first of the week then it starting getting worse and Tuesday night she woke up around 11 with 104 fever. We continued to give her tylenol then she just sounded and acted pitiful so after tylenol not helping we headed to the doctor.
Ramsey has been coughing almost the whole time i have been writing this, so it looks like we might have a long night ahead of us!
I was so thankful for my friend Emily. We were at lunch when all this went down so she took Evie to her house and watched her while i took Ramsey to the doctor.
I was glad we went on ahead because she had an upper respiratory infection and fluid in one ear. He prescribed her Amoxicillin and said to continue with the tylenol to help the fever.
They did weigh her and she was 15 pds 10 ozs! big girl!
So needless to say our week has been full of some restless nights! She keeps waking herself up coughing and trouble breathing. We bought a humidifier so hopefully that is helping.
Last night she woke up around 2am and we couldn't get her back to sleep until after 3. She kept sneezing and coughing and after trying everything i finally just decided to give her some milk, thinking it would at least calm her. I hadn't done that in months so i was a little hesitant but the doctor said when babies are sick you might as well throw schedules out the window.
That helped and she finally fell asleep then slept until 9, so i am glad she got some more rest.
I did manage to take some pics from earlier this week
