Well, we have almost made it through Lily's first major chest cold. Nothing pierces the heart like listening to your baby's raspy cough and being helpless to do much of anything. She was finally getting back to her smiling, babbling self for awhile today-but then it came time to go to bed and she was all slumpy again. I have been trying the whole "leave your baby in her crib to nap no matter what" plan and it really, REALLY stinks...especially now that she has a cold. I was in tears by the time I went to get her out of her crib yesterday. My poor husband was vexed enough by a crying baby-add to that a sobbing wife and he was just finished!
Thankfully, there is a light at the end of the tunnel and she is coughing less and less. I'm looking forward to tomorrow when she will hopefully wake up with bright eyes and a big smile. I haven't seen that in a couple of days and that was my whole reason for dragging myself out of bed at 6 am!
