Imogen's not been well for the past few days. It started at the end of last week with a bit of a cough - C took her to the dr last Friday when it sounded a bit chesty, but all was OK. Over the weekend, the congestion and cough got worse and Sunday & Monday nights were a nightmare - we didn't get more than 1 1/2 hrs sleep at any point and most of the time it was only 30 minutes. At one point on Tuesday night we were all in tears - Imogen because she felt rough and couldn't sleep, C because she was getting ratty and then felt guilty about it, and me because I just didn't know what to do! On Wednesday night, I went to bed early with the idea that if she couldn't/wouldn't sleep, I'd take her shopping to Tesco, but we got a few more hours sleep that night, so we've still got no food in the fridge!
Imogen was due her first vaccinations yesterday, so we put that off until next week, not wanting to add more hassle to this week. Dr Nicola visited yesterday and pointed out that 5 bugs in the first year gives a reduced chance of developing asthma and eczema, so at least she's on target for that!
She's been better today, and has enjoyed church Sunrise group and a taster session at Gymboree, but was really tired from all the excitement, so C gave her an early bath and she's now sleeping like a little angel - hopefully tonight will be a good one!
Progressing nicely!
