Have you ever seen a baby kitten when it's first born and it's eyes are goop-ed shut?
Holynd has the same problem!
She woke up yesterday with a horribly infected eye! So, off to the doctor we went. The doctor prescribed her some drops and said she had a virus also that's giving her a sore throat and cough.
I left the doctor's office feeling guilty for not taking better care of my baby.
Matt keeps telling me that babies get sick and there's not a lot you can do about it.
He's probably right.
So four times a day, I fight with Holynd so that I can give her the eye drops.
(Yeah! Four times a day!)
However, last night Holynd proved that there's lots worse than having to give her eye drops.
She has now mastered a talent of coughing until she throws up.
Yep, you read right, coughing-until-she-throws-up.
Last night, she threw-up all over me and our bed.
So we moved into Holynd's room because there's a spare bed in there.
(She was really excited to see that mom and dad
were having a slumber party with her in her room!)
Then, this morning she threw-up all over that bed. UGH!
And this is not small baby-spit-up....
It's throw-up!
She makes hungover frat-bros look like sissies!!!
But, it's ok. I spoiled her yesterday.
I held her all day long and laid with her while she took a nap.
Hopefully, in a few days my busy baby will be up to her same ole' everyday antics.
Notice the red left eye.
There's usually a constant stream of tears out of that eye.
I feel so bad!
oh man! the coughing til they throw up!! that is the worst!! and then you had to wash two sets of bed sheets! darn!! poor girl! and poor mom!
