Day 167 - A reassuring phone call.


There is nothing worse than a sick baby. Especially when they can't tell you what is wrong with them, where it hurts or when they only sleep for 20 minutes at daycare. What a pip!

Olivia coughed for nearly 2 hours straight tonight from 7:30pm - 9:30pm and boy did I feel helpless. I got so worried about her I called the local hospital who in turn gave me the health direct phone number. Registered nurses monitor and log the calls made to them and gives you advice on what they think maybe wrong and if you need/should go to the hospital. Luckily for us she told us just to take her to the dr tomorrow.

So after 3 nights sharing the bed with my darling daughter, we had a night of minimal coughing thanks to an old wives tale and and onion, but still a very restless night. I had forgotten that we could function on such minimal sleep. It is like having a newborn again. I am not enjoying this at all.

Bring on some healthy vibes.
