Update...the steroid shot that Nessa got on Wednesday whipped that croup in the bootie and now she has a cold, runny nose and a little cough. Preston on the other hand has been sick since Wednesday with no pinpointed complaints. Because he is prone to getting pneumonia, we took him to the pediatrician this morning. The diagnosis...double ear infection, rattling in his lungs with a slight wheeze. RX (nothing short of what one might take in a nursing home): pulmicort neb. treatments daily (we do those anyway), albuterol neb treatments PRN, augmentin 2x/day for 10 days, prednisolone (or as we refer to it as "turns our boy into a crazy loon with no control over his emotions" med) 2x/day for 5 days. And for those of you who remember the great sickness at the Schnoor household a few months back...yes, there will be post-it notes involved this time around too in order to keep it all straight in my prego brain!!
