Bottoms Up!

Sometimes, as a mom, it is hard to decide if your little one really needs to see the doc or not. Since B struggles a little bit with a congested chest, it seems that much more difficult for me to make up my mind...but following a 5 day battle with the stomach flu and after a week of a really phlegmy deep cough that wasn't getting better and no appetite (perhaps the most telling sign with this little guy - he loves his food - yes he does), I bit the bullet.  Turns up he had an ear infection and a chest infection - yuck. Glad I decided to take him in.  Back on meds...antibiotics & nebulizer.

After 48 hrs on both, he is definitely feeling better.

Loving how he takes his medicine like a "big boy", and doesn't mind doing it at all (in fact, likes to tip the medicine spoon really high up so as to get the tiniest little drop).  I like to call this the "bottoms up" position :)
