Cold, Ear Infection and one Tired, Stuffy Nosed Mommy

I took babygirl to the Dr. yesterday. The weekend was a very long one with a VERY congested baby (chest congestion). I was up all night with her breathing, even though she slept fine. She slowly started to improve but still coughing and keeping a mild fever. Well, by Monday night her fever was up and continued to the morning, plus she woke up screaming - I mean screaming 4 times through the night. No way to calm her but bounce her around until she decided it was ok to stop.

We saw the doctor yesterday, which really stressed her out, and its indeed an ear infection on top of the cold. The congestion is much, much better but she's still coughing. 10 days of antibiotics here we come.

I know I'm not important with a sick baby, but I have a horribly stuffy nose, which in addition to the lack of sleep we've been getting here, has me feeling less than good. I can hardly function with a stuffy nose these days.

Oh and I fear I'll never get the babygirl to sleep alone again...

*hugs* I sure hope she feels better soon!!! Gracie wasn't as sick as her, but I still feel your pain.

You get better too! 1 sick baby + 1 sick mommy who's functioning on zero sleep = one exhausted and non-functioning mommy. Take that Nyquil!

There's nothing worse than a congested baby unless it's a congested baby with an ear infection.

Hope you both get some sleep soon!
