Sick Baby

Julia woke up this morning coughing and even more congested than yesterday. Michael and I went ahead to work but Michael called Dr. Whitaker's office when they opened at 8:30 to get her an appointment. They couldn't get her in until 3:20 which was sort of good because it meant I got to go with her but I didn't have to take any time off.

The diagnosis is Julia's first cold. Dr. Whitaker basically told us to keep doing what we're doing (suctioning her nose, giving her Sudafed) and to elevate the head of her bed. Michael put some wood under one end tonight so maybe that will help. Her right ear was red, but not infected. We got a prescription for penicillan in case it develops into an ear infection or if she is not better by the end of the week.

She is pretty pitiful and everytime she coughs she cries. I don't know if it's because it scares her or if it's because it hurts but either was it's pitiful! I hope she feels better soon!
