Carter's back on his nebs. He hasn't used them for almost two months. He got a cold a few days ago, along with Aapo, who is just fine. In fact, he seems to be clearing up already. But Cart's been wheezing and all congested.
I assume he has asthma. The doctor does too. She could do clinical tests, if I want, but we're not going to. It wouldn't make any difference anyway because we'd just keep doing treatments. So. I say he has asthma. (I had it. I've mostly outgrown mine). He's taking Pulmicort twice a day. Today, he had to take Albuterol every two hours and he's still wheezing. It takes a few days to clear up when he's this bad.
Last night, I sat in the livingroom chair with him until 7 in the morning. He didn't sleep very well because he was so stuffed up. (I didn't either). He was pretty restless and he's also not used to sleeping anywhere but his crib, unlike my other two. He just sounded awful when he was laying on our bed so I decided to hold him. (Mark had taken him to bed, last night, after he was up until after midnight and wasn't settling down). I figured it would "drain" some of his congestion if he was on a bit of an incline (lying on my chest) and it did. He seems to be a "wee" bit better tonight. He went to bed at 8:30, his usual time, HOPEFULLY, he'll sleep through the night. If not, I'm hoping soon...
