Avery had her first trip to the ER on Wednesday night. Her and I had been battling the common cold for about a week. Congestion and all. I put her to bed as usual on Wednesday around 8 and she woke up around 12 with a very deep cough, high temperature, and a nose she could not breath out of. I went to pick her up noticed she was having bit of a hard time breathing. We called the advise nurse and after explaining what we were going through she left it up to us whether or not we should make the trip (not very helpful) We decided to observe her a few more hours and she was not getting any better. At about 4 am we decided to go in just to be sure. Little girl was diagnosed with the dreaded croup cough. There is nothing they can do for it. They just gave us suggestions to help alleviate the symptoms. So now we have locked ourselves in the house trying to get her better. There has been slow improvements and we are hoping this will be all over very shortly.
This was a very scary thing for us considering she has been very healthy since she was born. Her spirits are up I just wish I could do something to help her with all her congestion. We are so lucky to have such a good little girl. She has only been getting up once during the nigh. It could be soooooo much worse!!
We love you baby girl and hope you are better real soon!
oh baby girl! So sad! I hope she is feeling better soon. Keep us posted on how she is doing! Love you guys!
