My sweet baby girl has RSV :( She got sick earlier this week, and so I took her to the doctor yesterday because she started sounding so much worse. Her cough sounded really bad, and she was running a fever of 102. So the nurse did a test to see if she had RSV and it was positive. I am worried that she could possibly have an ear infection because earlier tonight she was grabbing her left ear, and she just couldn't seem to get comfortable enough to sleep. She won't nurse on the right side because I think it hurts for her to lay on her left side. I gave her some infant Tylenol, and then I walked around with her and bounced her until she fell asleep. Right now she's sleeping. She's on a steroid for the RSV, and she's already had two doses. So hopefully she'll get to feeling better. But the doctor told me day #4 is usually the worst day, and that's tomorrow. Seeing your little baby sick just breaks your heart. This picture was taken earlier this evening when we were all in the little boys' room playing monster trucks.
