Croup

We're having fun dealing with croup here at home this week. Elliot was cranky yesterday afternoon, then started making honking noises when he cried. Gary and I brought him into the pediatrician in the evening, and she quickly diagnosed it as croup. Gary just called from work and said that *he* isn't feeling so great now, either. I had my monthly checkup this morning, and the OB said that while I may get a cold, too, it should't harm the fetus. I'm hoping not to get a cold. :)

Meanwhile, I've had the humidifier on in Elliot's room nearly all day to help with the cough. He slept alright last night, but he's having a hard time settling down this evening (despite only having a 20 minute nap today!)

I don't think you or your sisters ever had croup! Bad coughs sometimes but Dr. Stone never called it that. Feel better!
Love, Mom
