than a sick, teething infant? dear God...
oh wait, do it while you're sick yourself, too! now we've got a party...
We went to the doctor this morning and she's pretty convinced he's got RSV -- which sucks 'cause that just has to run its course. But, based on the way he was coughing while we were there, it might also be Pertussis...yea, that's right...Whooping Cough.
WHOOPING COUGH = 1-way ticket to a hospital stay.
I'll take the RSV tyvm! PLEASE let it be RSV!
My poor baby...and to make it worse for him, the test for Whooping Cough requires a long, skinny swab ALL the way up EACH nostril. We have the best nurse at the pediatrician, but Lord knows Logan does not like her anymore lol.
I will be so glad when all this crap is out of our house. I just need to muster up the energy to do some cleaning/sanitizing. Ironic though...I really need lots of sleep to recover from being sick. But on top of getting up 1 or 2 times a night to feed the kiddo, he's up another 10 or 20 times because he can't breathe from the congestion or startles himself coughing. So while my cold has been relatively mild, I'm convinced that I will not be back to 100% until at least a few days after Logan is :(
Oh, motherhood, you win again.
