Baby's First Sick Visit

Hi friends! We are experiencing Baby First Sickness right now!  I took Audrey to the pediatrician on Saturday AM because she had had another rough night of coughing, congestion, etc.  She was diagnosed with "prolonged upper respiratory infection" and given a 10 day supply of amoxicillin which we started that night.  Pedi was NOT concerned about her potentially having RSV or anything more serious than the upper res infection.  She perked right up on the amoxil and is doing perfectly now- hasn't been suctioned in 2 days!! :)  Looks like she is handling her first cold very well...I am SO thankful!  Of course, you can't tell she wasn't feeling well...she has the nicest disposition of any baby I've ever known!! 


   Also....that sweet baby is upstairs taking a nap UNswaddled...she's in a sleep sack!!  We are practicing a little every day to try to wean away from the swaddle blanket.  Oh, and as if that weren't enough, this morning she grabbed a toy and brought it to her mouth!!!!! SLOW DOWN, SISTER!  She is growing way too quick.
