So Amelia has spent the last weekend sick. Se got shots on Thursday and spent the next 3 days throwing up everything she ate and drank. She eventually got a fever and later Friday night, started having problems breathing. She's had breathing problems before, but we didn't want to be to hasty to take her to the ER since we have been 2 times already since January 2 and they do nothing for her. By early afternoon on Saturday she was so miserable and not getting better. She spent the night crying "owww" and "help me" and was so weak, we decided it was time. They had to give her two breathing treatments to get her breathing stable again. After the first treatment, she must have been feeling much better because she started talking and singing again, but it wasn't enough to get rid of the wheeze. After the second treatment, her breathing sounded normal, she was asking for crackers and juice and finally fell asleep. When I took her to the doctor Monday for a follow up, turns out she developed an ear infection and still had wheezing in her lungs. They are thinking she has asthma, but want to monitor her for the next few months before giving her daily asthma treatments. So scary, but we are glad she is doing so much better and we have an inhaler so we can control her breathing a little more. Philip and I wonder if at some point she is going to have to live in a bubble! Despite all this, we kind of enjoyed snuggling, watching movies and reading books all weekend, but I am staring to get stir crazy. I like this picture because she wanted all her stuffed animals and dolls on the chair with her when she was watching her movie.
