Stuffy Lily
Lily has the worst runny and stuffy nose right now. (not sure if it’s because she is teething or if she caught a light cold)
The last 2 nights and days have been really hard and challenging.
I feel so bad for her (and us). Every time she falls asleep, she wakes shortly after because she can’t breath due to all the mucus.
It’s horrible!
Last night she woke up a bunch of times and was running a fever so, we finally gave her some infant Ibuprofen.
It helped. She finally got some much needed sleep.
All she wants is to be held and to breast feed.
Hopefully she will get better soon.
HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND EVERYONE!! (and if you can, please keep on voting. thank you! ;))

I remember holding Jeff’s tongue down with a spoon all night so he could breath!!! lol Anyway, if she gets an ear infection, (Jeff’s were chronic) there is a new device you may know about that you place behind the ear and it vibrates their little inner ear tubes to drain the yukky stuff that causes all that pain. I know my sentence ran on.

Poor baby Lily (and you for having to watch her suffer). I wonder if they make breath rite strips small enough for babies. My girls use them all the time and they help a lot.
Get well soon Lily.
