Our Poor Baby Emma

Back story:
Last Monday, the 7th, I took Emma in for a quick ear and lung check. She was having trouble eating and coughing every once in awhile. Since Mike had the day off it was easy for me just to take Emma. The result allergies and the ped saying "Welcome to Hampton Roads". Thanks.
She did end up getting her two bottom teeth later last week.
Fast forward to this week:
Miss Emma was feeling OK but not great. She was still active, happy and not eating which is typical but then she began refusing her bottle completely. Thought more teeth coming but by this morning she looked rough and sounded worse. We got an appt. for 1115 with the same dr (our dr is still out on maternity leave). It was a good decision to take her she has a horrible ear infection in her right ear and bronchiolitis (the baby form of bronchitis). She was prescribed amoxicilan, 400mg and a tsp two times a day. We did a little research and read the pamphlet that came with the meds and it's almost a full adult dose. Guess this little girl of ours has it pretty good.
Hoping that soon she'll be able to sleep, eat and have more energy!
