Sick Kids

2/27/2011

     It is no fun when the kids get sick.  Since we took the baby to the ER a couple weeks ago, she has mildly gotten better.  We had to take her back to the Dr. a couple times due to shallow/yucky breathing, we bought the nebulizer and gave her a few breathing treatments that seemed to work.  My middle daughter had what may have been the beginnings of an ear infection, so she had some antibiotics just to be safe.  She's totally fine now, and my son seems to have superimmunity from the children's home in Guatemala and rarely ever gets sick.
     I had to take 2 days off work, my husband took 2 days as well and everything backed up - laundry, grocery shopping, sleep, as well as just about all other house/yard duties.  I am still trying to catch up, and the baby is a lightning fast crawler, and loves the stairs, remotes, phones, cords, outlets and any type of button (computer power, dishwasher, etc.).  So, she is at the stage in which she must be watched at all time because major disaster can happen if I decide I have to pee for 30 seconds.  I'm going slightly crazy, but at least the older two are really helpful.
     My husband discovered some possible mold in the filter in the baby's humidifier, so we got rid of that, and we are hoping that her problems may have been related to that.  The doc took a nose swab to culture, so we'll see tomorrow if she is harboring some kind of antibiotic-resistant bacteria.  Thankfully she has the happiest demeanor of any baby I've ever seen - even when she's coughing, recieving a breathing treatment or has a massive double ear infection. 
     I suppose it's all in a day's work, but it sure will be nice to not be behind on laundry and all that domestic stuff.  Someday all my kids will be out of diapers and potty trained and able to dress themselves and sleep in later than 6 or 7am.  But, for now, we are just surviving (and enjoying) the chaos and hoping there are no more major illnesses because I'm pretty much out of sick days.
