April 24, 2001
Oh, a busy weekend here, I'm pooped!! We had to return and exchange our new furniture, it was already falling apart! While we were there, we lost Sidney. I was so scared, my heart was in my stomach. She had gotten out of the stroller my BIL was pushing and took off. I ran up to the front doors, so I could watch for anyone trying to leave with her. All these horrible images were going through my head. Finally after 15 minutes(a VERY long 15 minutes) my BIL found a salesman chasing her twords the warehouse. We left after that, I was too upset to shop anymore.
I also had to take Sidney to the doctor last Thursday. That darn cough just will not go away. This doc seems to think she may have allergies or a touch of asthma. He put her on Albuteral syrup. But she's still coughing, and it's been 5 days. I just don't know what else to do, poor thing.
Jake is doing okay, I think he has allergies too, he's still congested!!! Since he was about 2 weeks old this has been going on. I have to get up in the middle of the night to bulb syringe his nose so he can breath. Then I do it again in the morning and again before bedtime. It's got to be allergies??? But he's getting so big, just growing everyday. I bought a bunch of clothes(like onsies and short outfits) to wear now that's it's warm, but I got all 3-6 months....which he's on his way out of! I could just kick myself, what a waste, I should have gotten 6-9 month. POOOOOOOO!!!
Okay, I better run, Jake is chewing on his fists, so he must be hungry. Hope all is well, happy nursing! Chanda
