Another month has FLOWN by and my baby girl is now ten months old! She had her first and hopefully last experience being sick enough to go to the emergency room! She was running a pretty high fever for three days. I did everything the doctor told me to do to help the symptoms and keep fluids in her, but Sunday morning rolled around and she wouldn't keep anything down so we whisked her away to the hospital. The poor little thing had to suffer through three different pokes to find a good place for an IV and to draw blood (one spot they tried was in her head!). Then, they had to get an X-ray of her lungs and she was pinned down in a tube for that. They had to stick tubes up her nose and suck out mucus. She screamed the whole time and I cried. I'm so thankful for modern day technology though. They were able to get fluids pumped back into her and got her feeling good enough to keep some medicine down. I'm sooo glad to say that she is back to her wide-eyed happy little self.
