More croup

For our family and friends that follow on here, but not on Facebook, just an update. Molly has croup. I took her to the doctor on Monday night because she has not been sleeping. So I thought maybe an ear infection was going on. All we could come up with was teething. She has 3 teeth coming in and you all know how miserable THAT can be.

So onto Tuesday night. We put her to bed and I hear her first bark cough. I got that feeling that moms get. "Oh no, she is getting sick." 11:30, and we are up with crying and bad wheezing and coughing. Now, normally we would just have a rough night and wait it out until morning to see the doctor, but with Molly's lung issues, I just did not want to wait that long to get her on a steroid. So a little before 1am, Molly and I are off to the ER.

She got some good steroids, a cool mist breathing treatment and by 4am, we were home. I am so glad I went because she has not gotten nearly as bad as Samantha did. She is already doing better. She has been playing today, which has not happened in almost a week. All she wanted was to be held. I am glad to be getting my girl back. And last night, she only woke up once, which was less then Samantha! So thank God for His healing.
