Part 2
So guess where we ended back up today? That's right Dr. G's office. Connor has been struggling breathing again and with this cold front moving in, I got a little worried. Call me overprotective. Dr. G talked to Connor about how he was feeling. Now, Connor has not one time told us that his ear hurts, but that was the first thing he told Dr. G. Go figure! Dr. G checked his ears and no infection but red. He listened to him breath and could hear the wheezing and labored breathing before he even started. I know that this could be a lot worse but when it is your baby you just want to take it all away. So, next we moved onto testing his oxygen level. I knew it wasn't good when the nurse walked out to get Dr. G. Normal level should be over 98%, closer to 100%..... Connor's was 94%. He wasn't worried but put him on steroids. Does not worried mean telling us to keep a close eye on him and the minute he spikes a fever to bring him in? Does not worried mean telling us to keep an eye on him because this could easily turn into pneumonia? Not sure the doc knows Connor's mommy to well.... I am a worry wart!!! So, now we are on breathing treatments three times a day, steroids twice a day and an antibiotic twice a day. Can the little man take anything else?!? Connor has a busy weekend ahead with a Halloween festival on Friday, birthday party on Saturday and our Fall Festival block party on Sunday. Hopefully the meds will kick in and he will be a little terror again. :) Man I love that kid!!!
