Baby diary: Week 23

30/7/2014

We have got a poorly baby on our hands this week. A hacking cough has developed on top of her usual wheezy chest. It is making sleeping and feeding very hard and I am bleary eyed from the broken sleep. A trip to A&E reassured us that nothing more sinister is going on but she really isn't very well. Luckily our paediatric appointment about the wheeze is next week so we can get to the bottom of that.

So a lot of the day is being spent having cuddles, keeping her propped up to relieve the cough.

Little E is being a very loving big sister while Little I is unwell and is enjoying helping me look after her.

Oh no, that doesn't sound good at all. I do hope you get to the bottom of the wheezing and that the cough improves-coughing is awful as it's so hard to do anything to help it isn't it.

The whole thing is really upsetting and frustrating. Hopefully this is just a virus but we need to get to the bottom of the wheezing as that has been there since birth. Thanks for dropping by xx

Ahhh bless you hunny. I can relate to a wheezy baby and trips to the ER just to check them out. I hope she is feeling better now. It's never easy when they are sick and all we can do is cuddle them. Feeding is hard too when they can't breath. Biggest hugs to you. Thanks for linking up to Share With Me #sharewithme

Hope she's feeling better soon.
Eli had a really bad chest when he was first born. I was beside myself but thankfully it disappeared.
