Quick Update

I said I'd keep you posted... We found out yesterday that Porter has a double ear infection. :( Luckily the throwing up was only being caused by the gunk from RSV getting into his tummy. He's eating ok now, and we're watching him close. We've reached that, "It will get worse" stage today. He's coughing constantly but it's a much healthier cough and his breathing is fine.

We're 5 days into this so I'm hoping he'll start feeling better soon, but the doctor told us RSV lasts for 10-14 days. Blah, let's kick it, little man!

Max's cough only lasted about a week and a half - mine lasted 3 weeks! Hope he's feeling better soon.

Meghann, that's horrible!! I'm so sorry you guys have to go through that. I've thought about coming over to visit but I'm a paranoid first time mom as well and don't want to bring anything home to Braxton! I'm thinking about you guys though and if you need anything please let me know - we owe you!!!

Oh yes, and thank you so much for warning me about church! Luckly when I told Nate he was cool with us staying home a couple more weeks! Sometimes he's even more paranoid than I am but this time I think it paid off!

Kristin,
Thanks so much for thinking of us, but DON'T COME ANYWHERE NEAR THIS HOUSE!!! RSV has made Porter one very sick little boy, but he's old enough he'll get over it. It would be much scarier if Braxton got it!

You're so sweet! Thanks for always watching out for us. :)
