It’s 3 am. I heard the baby cough, then cry. Mothers out there know that cry. The one that makes you run..fast. I went into his room, and immediately picked him up. He then started choking, which about stopped my heart I got so afraid. Then he threw up all over me. Then he really started to cry, and he couldn’t catch his breath. I was one scared mom for about 5 minutes. I got him to calm down, by holding him close and singing tohim. Once he was calm I got us both changed. I bundled him up in his warmest pj,s and I got out of my vomit covered clothes. I sat and held him and soothed him until his breathing returned to normal, but I can hear a rasp in his chest, and his nose is stuffed up.
I just went and woke his daddy up and laid the baby next to him. The little guy is going to have to sleep in our bed tonight because I am too scared to leave him in his own room. If this happens again, I think daddy is going to have to take him to the ER. I don’t get too shook up about kids getting colds. Been there, done that, I’ve pretty much been thru it all. This shook me up. It’s going to be a long long night. Thank goodness we went thru all health insurance and the life insurance leads just last month, and both kids have very good heath coverage. Can’t say the same for my husband and I. Ours suck thru his work. We pay for a separate private policy for the kids. It’s in times like this, that I’m glad we did. I’m gonna try to get some sleep. I doubt if that is going to happen.
3 days ago, I was feeling great!
