My poor little champ.. He's such a good sport, even when he's sick...

Last week at the gym/daycare a few of the moms were talking about their kids just getting over what their brother had

and one girl was coughing a little, looked feverish, etc. and my mgr was like 'Anna keep JA AWAYYY from them!

' She didnt realize this until the mom told her they were sick, and the girl was playing in the far corner on her own, so we didnt get a chance to really notice too much.
Well sure enough, yesterday we were in Queens (we slept over because we had a wedding Sat nite, and then we were going out to a big lunch with my family at an Italian Restaurant). Well ALLL NIGHTTT daddy and JA got NOO SLEEPP at all. Maybe an hour all nite. JA has this croupy-cough, dry, hoarse breathing, has been feverish on and off and runny nose to top it off...

We took him yesterday morning, back home and to the Dr to make sure it wouldnt get worse throughout the day. He basically just said EVERYTHING my MIL said (I should just give HER my copay from now on

)
-It will go away within 4-5days.
-Hot Shower mist or cold air - good for clearing his throat.
-Avoid milk and milk products - make the flem worse. Stick to thinner liquids (pedialyte, juice, water).
-Giving him Robutussin
So far, he's still always smiling and playing, sick and all. he's such a good sport. But it makes me feel so bad seeing his helpless little face... I just gave him a warm bath. He's going down for a nap soon, and then we're going to take a walk for some fresh air...
Hopefully it's just a day or 2 more...
