Recovering

This will be short and sweet. Can you see me? I mean I think I may actually be paper thin by this point. This week brought about unexpected sickness. My poor little Chloe is sick as a dog. I think she has a nasty sinus infection. Needless to say, I have not gotten more than 30 minutes of sleep in a row in 5 nights, I threw my low back out, I have had house guests for 6 days, and I shot a wedding all day yesterday with a bad back. Blogging was number 153,589,789 to do on the list of priorities. Cheers to better health, real sleep, and happy baby. Please send me some good vibes, mostly pray for Chloe, she never cries, I mean never…and she is just beside herself in misery. We leave for NY for a long weekend next weekend…so we really have to see some progress over the next 4 days…..GULP. I will be back soon and I haven’t read one blog in 5 days, so I will make the rounds sometime soon.

The violin music can stop, I am done complaining…..off to wipe boogers and lay on my heating pad.

    Oh man that is rough! It’s bad enough feeling crappy yourself, but when your baby is sick, that is just TERRIBLE! I feel your pain. I am thinking of you and sending good get better vibes, cause NY is a waitin’. I love new york! That is where I told my hubby he was going to be Daddy. Up in the Empire state building. So NY holds a special place for us.
    GET BETTER!

    I’m not sure how you feel about medicating babies but my son was in the NICU for almost 2 months when he was born and when he got a cold, months after we were home, his pulmonologist (a fantastic doctor that I still love) said that Afrin is OK to use on children for around 3 but not more than 5 days in a row. It may give her the relief to be able to breathe and sleep a little better. It worked great for us and I used it again when my daughter came along and got colds.

    Am feeling like a crap mum this week Kell :( Ryder fell off our bed yesterday and hit his head. He seemed ok but I put him in his cot this morning just in case. What happens? He hits his nose falling forward on the bars! :( I’m scared to tell anyone - I know I should be taking better care of him :(

    Gosh, that sucks. I totally feel your pain. LIttle G has been so congested and wakes me up a million times at night. What kind of medicines have you tried? He likes the little tummies cough and cold stuff. It lets him breathe long enough to get a couple hours of sleep and nursing is the pits when he cant breath out of his nose and we have to use teh booger sucker every single time. I think he may just wean next time he sees that sucker coming towards his nose. I never knew how strong my baby was till I used that thing. Geez. Sending you lots of prayers!!!!
