Our first breathing treatment.....

Parker has had a bad cold just about all week now.  Tuesday night his cold def. got worse so I called the doctors Wednesday when they opened back up after Christmas and they told me the basics that I had already been doing but that otherwise thats about all we could do.  Well last night he got a lot worse and Adam mentioned something about his breathing sounding funny, so I called first thing this morning and took him in to see the doctor.  They said he had a DOUBLE ear infection, poor guy!  They gave us some antibiotics, Also that he was wheezing and needed a breathing treatment, she explained that there is a triangle with severe Eczema , usually comes Asthma (or breathing troubles), and Allergies.  So we had to have his first breathing treatment, he did not like it one bit, he cried the whole time I felt so bad because I had to hold the mask on but I knew it would help him out!  But he did get a cute little dinosaur mask....So they sent it home with us and we now have to do them every four hours.  Hopefully he will get better soon so we don't have to do them long!  Also, they talked about food allergies and him possibly having allergies to the formula which has got me debating trying to breast feed again, they say its possible to start back up to 6 months out.... not sure but if anyone has any advice I'd love to hear it!

Also if you live in the Fuquay area and are looking a pediatrician we go to Fuquay Peds and love them I see Dr. Powell or Dr. Lynn Cartledge, or Dr. Schoffner they are all awesome.
