LO is sick & I'm trying not to freak out, which isn't really working...
She started sneezing on Saturday and sounded a little congested but nothing too bad...Sunday she started randomly coughing, but again, nothing too bad...Then yesterday it got a lot worse. She's now coughing a lot to the point where she's making herself gag, she's super congested and I can hear rattling in her chest when she breathes.
She has a Dr appt this afternoon but I'm just really worried. DS never got sick until her was over a year old so this is new to me & I don't like it. DH is at work so I'm going to the appt alone & I'm just worried.... Of course, my anxiety is insane right now because of this...
And Prayers or Positive vibes you could send would be greatly appreciated...
UPDATE #1: Took her to the Dr & she wants a chest x-ray done to check for pneumonia. I just got to the place to have it done & I'm freaking out you guys. I'm doing everything I can not to cry. Any prayers are greatly appreciated right now.
UPDATE #2: LO doesn't have pneumonia, thank GOD! But she does have a cold. Dr wants us to monitor her breathing, make sure she doesn't get a fever & if she gets worse to give them a call. I'm so glad she doesn't have it but watching her cough and listening to the raspy breathing isn't easy. Hopefully this mess goes away soon!
Thank you for all your support ladies, that's why you're all awesome!

I have every confidence she's going to be okay, but I know that doesn't change your worry or concern! So instead of good thoughts for her, I'm sending good thoughts for you. I hope the doctor's appointment goes well and you get some solutions! And I hope she feels better soon.
Positive vibes your way! It is so hard when the littles are sick. DS1 caught everything his first year. FX it clears up quickly and the doctor has some good tips to ease her distress.

T&Ps. I've been nervous about this LO getting sick with a germy toddler in the house and no breastmilk immunity, so I feel your concern. Please update us after your doc appt!
Aw sully you are doing the best for her by getting her checked out. DS had two bronchial infections that required hospital stays between 10 and 14 months too, so I understand how scary it is watching them breathe. Lots and lots of continued good thoughts and hugs to you.
Thinking of you and baby girl! You are in the right place doing the right thing for her! Hang in there! Fingers crossed for good health for baby and some peace of mind for you
