Sick Baby :(

Christmas night was a little bit of a rough night with Maddock still not feeling 100% I had him stay home with Lee from daycare on Wednesday. By the time I got home he seemed to be feeling better and no fever so I decided to send him daycare on Thursday, to be safe I gave him some Motrin just before dropping him off. Well about 4:00 daycare called to say Maddock had a small temp 100.5 at 3:15. I called Lee and had him go get him. By evening last night Maddock sounded awful, really bad congestion in his chest I felt so bad for him, he couldn't breath, so sleep was out too. Lee stayed up with him most of the night because I had to work today.

So this morning at 9:01 I call the doctor's office -- appointment made for 11:00 Lee calls me at 11:21, NOW remember just took the munchkin on Monday -- common cold remember?!?! Verdict is -- double ear infection, bronchitis so bad just on verge of pneumonia and he now weighs 17lbs 1oz. Okay I'm sorry but what the heck -- 3 days ago common cold now this? I think honestly that the doctor is trying to cover his butt and I am not a happy mommy. My poor baby is suffering because these stupid doctor's don't want to give out antibiotics anymore. That's crap!

She gave him an antibiotic and said we have get him to take at least an ounce of formula for nutrition, he's lost too much weight in such a short period of time. ????? I'm confused the baby can't breath, his ears hurt and you want him to swallow a bottle -- ummm HELLO McFly? is there anyone out there? I'm seeing some difficulty in this task but yeah okay. And through all of this Maddock got his first tooth on Christmas Eve :)
