Oops I posted over in the August baby chat! So September is a big month, beginning with Oliver and Georgias 2 month doctors appointment on Weds. then my b-day and our wedding anniversary on Thurs.
I am dreading the doctors visit especially since they're getting their shots!!! I don't know if i'm gonna make it but I guess I have to be strong for them. This wasn't exactly what I was expecting as far as a b-day present!

Lisad~ I agree, this year has just flown by.

Dani~ You poor thing. It is hard to have them get their shots, but luckily they only cry for a minute and then are happy and content in mommy's arms. Happy early bday and anniversary!

Ava has been so sick this weekend! She had a temp of 103.6!! They can't find anything so suspecting a virus. Poor little thing! I want my happy baby back.

Well, I got a call today from the hospital and Ava's blood culture that they took yesterday was growing some micro-organism in it so we have to take her in for injections of antibiotics daily this week. : ( I'm so sad..

Dana - I'm sorry that Ava is not feeling well. Hope they can get her back to her happy little self soon. ((HUGS))

Dani - I think that shots hurt me more than they did Marika. She did very well and barely cried which was a HUGE consolation for me because I felt horrible afterwards (even though the STUPID nurse laughed when Marika DID cry and that made me VERY angry ). Just be sure to follow the Dr. rules and probably (if you pedi says to) give them a little baby tylenol after their shots. Good luck at their appointment.

So i'm safe from having to take my babies to get their shots for two more weeks but unfortunately it's cause they both started with a really congested nose Monday night. I haven't been able to sleep too well these last couple of nights and the poor things haven't been able to eat or breath right! They got antibiotics and some drops so hopefully they'll start getting better! I hate seeing them like this!!!Oh and as if that weren't enough I think Georgia may already be teething, I know it sounds kinda insane since she's only 2 months but she's been drooling a lot and she just seems uncomfortable sometimes. I forgot to ask the doctor though so we'll see how that goes!

Dani - Poor babies getting shots! it is hard to watch!

We got a diagnosis today...Ava has salmonella in her blood! They have never seen anything like it around here. Leave it to us to have a strange thing happen like this! I have to give her oral meds...but today she spit out most of it at 4:00pm and she is to get 2 doses a day. Should I give her another dose tonight or wait until morning? Just wondering since she didn't get much of the first dose since she spit it out at me? Suggestions?

Oh, Dana! What terrible news! How in the world did she end up with that??!!?? Gosh, I wish I knew what to tell you. I would probably just give her the next dose she is supposed to get. If that doesn't seem right, maybe call the dr? I am so sorry to hear about poor little Ava. I'm glad it was caught, though!

Dana - That is awful. I agree with Jenna, I am glad that they caught it when they did. I hope that she gets better soon. Poor little baby girl.

Honestly, I really don't know how this stuff happens to us!! I just sit here all day wondering where it came from and what I could have done differently to not let this happen. I just wish I would know. I guess I never will. And as for the Rx apparently anitbiotics take 24 hours to get into your system at full capacity so it would have been hard to overdose her like I was thinking. Thank God for that!! I'm supposed to go back to work on Monday and I don't know if I'm going to be able to handle it!! There have been way too many stressors this past week! I guess I'll give it a try.
