...the first sickness :(
Poor baby, it was rough! On her 3 month birthday, Maya developed a cough. We weren't too concerned that day, but when she woke up that night with a 101.3 fever and a much worse sounding cough, we called the doctor right away. Unfortunately, there's only so much you can do, and after a cold rag on the head and some time in the bathroom for a steam shower, we brought little miss into our room so we could listen to her breath for the rest of the night.

Fortunately, the fever was gone in the morning, and we had a doctor's appointment already set up for the following day (she was supposed to have some vaccines...which were of course postponed) so we were able to have our pediatrician check on her. Since we couldn't give her any meds, we just had to wait it out! It was a tough 8-10 days, but I'm happy to report, she seems back to her old self...crazy hair and all!
Poor thing! And poor Mommy and Daddy! I rememeber I cried the first time Jos got a cold because it hurt me to see her not acting herself. We've been lucky and Jos has only been sick twice in 11 months. I'm shocked since she's in daycare!
