Having a sick baby is no fun!

it's no fun for the baby or the parents! 

Milly has Bronchiolitis. If you don't know what that is here is what the little paper from the Dr.'s says about it. 

Broncholitis is an infection of small airways in the lungs. When you breathe in air, it goes down to your lungs and into tubes that look like branches on a tree. There is a big tube called the bronchus. From there, it goes into smaller tubes, called bronchioles.

Bronchiolitis is when the bronchioles get infected. This condition is often confused with bronchitis, which is an infection of the bigger tubes. 

The rest of this post is mostly for record keeping. So you don't have to read on!

Brady called my phone a couple mornings ago right after he had left to go work out with his cousin Lex. I guess Lex was telling about how he was at the Dr. with his son and they told him about all the kids that are coming in with respiratory problems right now. The night before we had been up with Milly every two hours. She couldn't sleep because she was so stuffy. I almost took her to the E.R. in the early morning that night because it was getting so bad that I was starting to get really worried. So Brady called me after he left and told me that he thought we should take Milly in just to get her checked out. She had been stuffy for the last couple days. We called and they had an opening for us at 9:20. So We hurried and got ready took Milly in and within less then 20 seconds of listening to her lungs that Dr. said she has Bronchiolitis disease. (I don't like how he called it a disease made me freak out a little inside.) He told us about the awesome clinic that St. George has for kids with bronchiolitis. And gave us a prescription for us to take Milly there. *a little side note this is where they take babies that have RSV bc Bronchiolitis can be caused by RSV (not in Milly's case)

So later that afternoon Milly started to sound really bad, it sounded like she was snoring while she was awake! I kept thinking is this bad enough for me to take her in? I have to admit I was terrified to take her in cuz I know what they were gonna do to her! I had seen on the news some little babies getting their noses sucked out and it was torturous looking! I went over to Brady's work hoping that he would give me some courage to go do it!  He decided to leave work and come with me. I bawled from the time we left his work till after we got home from that first session! It was and still is the hardest thing to sit and watch my baby! It's so sweet because as soon as they are done I get to hold her and comfort her and I am the only one that can get her to calm down! I'm sure eventually she would calm down for Brady but she instantly lays her head on my shoulder and just cries. She lift her little head up and cry, it's kinda like she is saying "mom why did they do that to me?!" and then she'll turn to the nurse that did it and just cry at her! It  is so sad but kinda cute! 

We have been taking her into the clinic for the last 4 days and she actually seems to be getting worse. But Brady gave her a blessing a couple nights ago and I really feel like she will be getting better here very soon!

I need to document this. Yesterday February 11 Milly rolled over (from her tummy to her back) twice while grandma Carma was babysitting her! Sad I missed it but I think she'll be doing it again really soon!! She keeps trying to roll from her back to her tummy! But hasn't figured it out just yet! Here is a picture of her trying!



And another...



I am so proud of my baby girl!! 16 weeks and rolling over!
