Sick Boy

-January 14th-

Mike got sick... almost scary sick. I have learned my lesson about taking your baby into the pediatrician when they are showing cold symptoms. You get the great "mom" talk. You know the one... "Your baby is going to catch many colds in the first few years of his life. His immune system is building up" blah blah blah! So when Mike has a runny nose and small cough, I don't take him in. But this time it was different. He was having trouble breathing and wheezing. This was the outcome of our trip to the doctor.
Turns out he had a form of RSV, called bronchiolitis. It wasn't very serious. The breathing treatments were just to help break up the mucus so he could get it up. He was really good about taking the treatments. He stayed still and stuck his tongue out the whole time, kind of funny.

Poor Mike...past tense. Bode had to do those to. We called it fishy face time.
