Evie's First Prescription

Little Missy has not been sleeping well since a few days before Christmas. She has developed a cough that sometimes wakes her up. It just keeps sounding worse and worse. And sometimes she coughs stuff up, since she starts chewing it.

So last night after I kept hearing her cough in her sleep, that I was taking her into the doctor. It was getting worse, not better. And she has had it for 1.5 - 2 weeks.

They were surprised to hear that she is waking up 3 times a night to eat. Especially when she used to go 8-9 hours. Her lungs sounded good - no fluid. She has a little bit of fluid in one ear, but not infected.

So she is on Amoxiciallian for 10 days, twice a day. It is pink, like pepto bismol, so hopefully tasty.

They were surprised that a 5 month old isn't afraid of strangers. My little social butterfly is totally cool with new people...

So hopefully she will get better, and will sleep again!
