Croup Baby
Hadlei has come down with croup. Where she got it from I couldn't tell you. She was fine all day Thursday and when she woke up from her nap she had a froggy voice and barky cough. She put in an awful nite. I thought I was going to have to take her to the hospital. I was up watching her breathe most of the nite so I didn't really sleep. I took her to the dr yeaterday and she told me what I already knew - it was croup. She gave me a steroid for her to take before bed and told me to prepare for 3 rough nites. She slept through the nite last nite so maybe it won't be as bad as the dr thinks.
The hubby snapped this pic when I brought Hadlei up to lay with me for a while. The cat hopped right on my lap and nuzzled Hadlei then laid down with us. When Pat came over to see Hadlei the cat swatted at him. She was protecting Hadlei which I thought was kind of strange. You can tell from the pic that she doesn't look like a guard cat :)Labels: kids
