Breathing Treatments

Here we are doing the first breathing treatment at home and before Parker started crying. This is not the same as the one we did at the doctor's office this morning. This one is much easier and it doesn't take as long. We have to do this every 6 hours for at least 2 weeks. The inhaler on the end pushes the medicine into the tube and then Parker can inhale it (for 30 seconds). For now, we do 2 puffs of medicine each time.

Parker is a lot more congested tonight and more fussy. Dr. Eastman said it will likely get worse tonight and into tomorrow, before it gets better. Bryan is giving Parker a vapor/steam bath right now so maybe this will calm him down a little.

I pray that my little boy rests well tonight and feels better tomorrow! I am thankful for a husband that came home with dinner and ready to help!!!
