Once again, Congratulations to Kismetdreams and her hot new hubby.

I see I wasn't
the first to congratulate you after all. We have all been waiting anxiously for your return. Glad you're back, you were missed.
Thanks for breakfast

CourtasanSatine, hang in there girl!
The trip to the doctor's office last night was really horrible for Ella. The doctor examined her and really couldn't find anything wrong except for her obvious symptoms. Since she has been sick for 10 days straight, she thought it best to error on the side of caution. She had listened to her lungs and thought there might be a little wheezing sound on one side, so she sent us over to the hospital for x-rays and blood work.
This was the awful part. First they had to draw blood and they did it through her tiny little baby finger. Two vials, which took about 5 minutes of holding her down and squeezing her little finger. All the while she cried and squirmed and of course I had to let them do this and it was so hard when she's looking at me to get her out of there.
Next came the x-ray which was quite a bit quicker, but by then she was so scared of everything happening to her. She had to sit against this cold metal thing with her shirt off and I had to hold her in position with her arms out to the sides while the technician took the pictures. She screamed so loud and hard. I've never had to torture one of my babies like that. I know it's not real torture and so many children go through things like this and worse, but that doesn't make it any easier.
The doctor looked over the xray and saw an area that looked like the beginning stage of pneumonia, but we have to wait until the radiologist comes in to confirm it. She went ahead and started her on antibiotics last night, just in case.
I gave her the antibiotic and she threw up about an hour later. The vomiting doesn't concern the doctor, she said it's normal for babies to throw up from all the drainage. Again, doesn't make it any easier to go through, every single night for 10 days now.
Sorry for the rant guys. I'll let you know when I hear the results.
