Update


Well, the coughing continued throughout the night so we called the dr's office and were able to get her in this afternoon.  The good news is that she doesn't have any kind of infection, the bad news is she definately has a cold. Actually, apparantly we all do.  Allen and I both thought we were suffering from allergies starting late last week, but the fact that Sylvia has this cold with all the same symptoms as us confirms another cold bug has hit the Cooley home.  Did you know that infants do not develop seasonal allergies? The dr said we wouldn't start to see seasonal allergies until she was three or four.  Also, one of the benefits of breastfeeding Sylvia is that she is continuously receiving antibodies from the milk.  In fact the doctor's orders were to breastfeed as often as possible and to help her to get plenty of sleep.  Let me tell you what, the first part is the easy part.  Helping her get to sleep is a whole different thing.  When she doesnt feel good she doesn't want to be any where but in our arms, and mostly my arms because I'm the lady with the boobs. She fought sleep pretty hard tonight, and last night I think Allen and I slept a total of 3 broken hours.  Hopefully the breastmilk will work it's magic and she will be feeling better tomorrow.

On a different note...Allen and I both are on jury duty notification...neither one of us have been called yet and hopefully neither one of us will. UGH!

And lastly, only two more days left working at BCBS!
