Well Connor got his first cold. He started not feeling well last Tuesday and it's been getting worse all week. By Wednesday morning, he started coughing and sounded like a chain smoker. It is so sad to see him cough like that and watch him struggle to catch his breath. When he wasn't coughing he was wheezing a lot. After talking to the doctor a couple times, he said to just lay low, use the humidifier, nose drops, and make sure he didn't get a temp or get worse. We tried that for a few days but this morning he really looked bad and so we decided to take him to the walk in clinic at our doctor's office. He was able to see his doctor's partner doctor which was nice. Anyways, he said it was just a cold but wanted to treat it "aggressively" since he was so young and little. So here we are using a nebulizer every 6 hours, squirting nose drops in his nose and using the booger sucker outer thing (can't think of what it's called) every 2 hours, putting sterroid rash cream on his face, neck and chest a couple times a day, putting baby vicks vapor rub on his chest at night, and sleeping with a humidifier. Geesh. Hopefully he'll start to feel better really soon!
