The World O'Beanie

Lilypie 3rd Birthday Ticker
We are all sick here. Like plague. I woke up this morning at 6 am struggling to breathe and all I could think of was "this is what it's like to be Moe!" Waited until 9 am somehow, called my dad to come listen to my lungs. He barely understood me because my voice is completely shot. My poor baby is sick too.

My poor darling girl.

Her lungs are clear, but we're going to get her to see the pediatrician tomorrow. Just to be safe. She's definitely got malaise, but her lungs so far sound good. PF seems like his lungs are clear as well, no breathing problems, but he's got the horrible cough. Ugh. Will this sickness ever END???

Although sick, Beanie is so cute lately. At least we had nothing planned this weekend that couldn't be canceled gracefully. Because me and my sick ass sat home adoring my kid and her antics. Even her productive cough is cute.

She has started "creeping". Nearly crawling. She'll get it soon. She can pull herself and push herself across a floor, and climb things, and pull up. But she gets tripped up on the hand-after-knee choreography that facilitated the 'crawl' itself. But she'll get there.

I can't believe how brilliant and beautiful and precious she is. She's the light of my life.

Maybe I should just completely wean her. She does eat crackers, pancakes and frozen waffles.

She's FINALLY got teeth coming in as well. Two nubbins on her front lower gums. Pefect little gummy hard domes.

Precious.

    Sick sucks. I vote not to wean, but you knew that, lol ;o)

    (and I'll love & respect you regardless)

    think of the antibodies! i've given Spouse & big kid breastmilk (not directly from the source, mind you) and I swear it helped them get over their illnesses quicker. (But it could be that I imagined it 'cause I'm biased in that direction anyway ;o).

    Hang in there, mama! I'm sending 'get well' vibes from 3000 miles away.

    Yeah. It's true, the antibodies have probably kept her from getting sicker all this time that I've been dying. I can't not breastfeed, either; I'm miserable pumping and watching her stare at me like I'm a traitor. PF and I decided to get a new RX that is not toxic to the beanie. I'm now 80 bucks poorer, but the 3 days I'm on it will be breastfeeding okay. I was miserable pump and dumping, and I actually accidentally fed her in my sleep sometime this morning. And I had to give her nu today because she didn't like her generic infant tylenol. Had to wash it down. Poor girl. She's on an antibiotic herself, and some steroidal cough medicine that opens the lungs up.
    We are ridiculously sick for people who feel relatively okay.
