Sickness hits the Lowry House. . .

Well, I didn't get a chance to sleep on vacation and I certainly didn't get to catch up on sleep once we got home.  The horrible cough that Ryan had during our mini-vacation I now know was RSV. . .how do I know this you might ask?  Because baby Brooklyn has it, along with Bronchiolitis. 

Brookie was one sick little baby and we really started worrying about her when she started wheezing.  I took her in to see Dr. Peterman and unfortunately there isn't much they can do at her age.  The RSV either has to be so bad that the child is admitted to the hospital or else the parents/child have to tough it out at home. 

That means Mommy slept in baby Brookie's room for over a week straight on the recliner so that Brookie could sleep on me in an upright position in order to breathe.  She is slowly getting better, but this is the pits!

  1. Oh, poor Brooklyn. Hope she's starting to feel better. Kristie just got over pneumonia.
