When your baby gets sick...and then you :)

It's been an interesting week, to say the least.

Coby started not feeling well over last weekend.  It started with a stuffy nose, then added on sneezing, coughing and then wheezing. He sounded miserable.  Nate & I had a little bit of the "new parent" freakout, just worrying if he was ok.  I called the Dr at 10:30pm on Sunday night, and we agreed that I should probably make an appt for Monday.



Nate joined Coby & I for the appointment, which I was thankful for.  It's nice to have someone who is with me in this crazy ride of parenthood.

Coby ended up having Bronchiolitis (which I hear has been bad this year). Fantastic.  We had to give him breathing treatments every 4-6 hrs.  Naturally, he loved the breathing treatments {not}.


He sounded better right after them & has continued to improve.  We had a check-up on Wednesday and the doctor was happy with his improvement and said we could start doing less & less breathing treatments.  We are down to 1 a day, and I couldn't be happier. Let's just say giving Coby a breathing treatment in the middle of the night is not on my "favorites" list :)

Of course on Tuesday after we had our small group over, my throat started feeling sore.  Wednesday I felt worse and Thursday I felt worse{er}. haha. I went to work on Thursday and made it through my day, but only to come home and continue feeling worse.

Last night, I prayed that Coby would start sleeping better at night (he had been sleeping poorly bc he couldn't breathe as well when he was sick), and ya know what?  He slept 7 hrs straight last night!

The Lord is good my friends!!! #mamaneedssleep #7hrsislikeheaven #amiright?


Thankful that the weekend is here, Nate will be home so maybe I can sneak in a nap, and that Coby & I are {both} hopefully on the upswing.

Looking forward to a weekend with some of my favorites!

xox,
