Two Kids Twice as Sick
There is a nice little learning curve with two children, I keep telling myself Jason and I are catching on well. Mason was five weeks old and older sister Jaci is holding him. Jaci has a runny nose and a cough nothing I am too concerned about because she is almost three and has her share of colds. Then she turns to Mason and leans in to kiss him...instead showers him in the face with an adult sneeze. I am instantly horrified my toddler with a normal cold has just soaked my newborn in germs! One week later: Mason has a cold, we are talking a cough most smokers don't have and snot you wouldn't believe. So like any new mom I rush him to the doctor...yep, he has a cold. Three days pass, he is worse...back to the doctor. Yep, still sick, but now he has an ear infection SUPER! 10 days of an antibiotic later and NO visitors Mason is doing better. Almost one week later Jaci has a 104 temp. and is starting with the runny nose again. Four days later, Mason is grumpy with a runny nose...WILL IT STOP!? Tune in soon...
