Look at that smile! Clearly somebody didn’t get the memo that he was sick.

Baby E, who has been dealing with an ear infection for the past week, started wheezing today so I took him to the doctor. I thought perhaps the antibiotics weren’t working, and he might need a stronger dose. And because of his history with RSV I don’t play around when I hear that noise. The doctor looked at his ears and said he was actually improving, the wheezing was from something else. He listened to his lungs, said he sounded pretty bad, but treated him with a pretty high dose of albuterol. After confirming that that opened his airways, he sent me home with instructions to give him albuterol at regular intervals throughout the night. So, I’m going to set my alarm for every few hours to take care of my little guy. It’ll be like having a newborn in the house, right?!? That’s what I will tell myself as I drag myself around tomorrow like a zombie. Hopefully the albuterol works its magic and I can start easing off the dosage in the morning, but I will wait and see. Please pray my little guys starts feeling better. This poor kid really can’t catch a break and I just want to see him well.
