Sick again!!!

I swear Coop has had a cold since the first of year!  He started coughing bad again last night, and tonight he spike a fever!  I have no idea what to do to keep this kid well, he's breastfed, we wash our hands, he doesn't ride in grocery carts, he is at home with a sitter, etc, etc. 

I hate when I tell people he's sick and they say "man he's always sick"....makes me feel like a bad mom, like I'm doing something wrong.

I swear we went straight from reflux/colic to ear infections/respiratory infections.... I just want my little guy to be healthy, he is such an awesome/easy baby when he feels well!

I told DH that I would kick his a** if he ever asked to go out of town again before Cooper turned 18    We actually are fine, but I do wish DH was here to help shoulder some of the extra work.

Thanks Just needed to vent!

Today I read that most babies get 4-10 colds in their first year! Ack!

Sorry :-(  It's definitely not anything you are doing or not doing though - just happens!

On a positive note, it was great to meet y'all on Sat ;-)

If it is 4-10 in the first year, we have reached our quota before 6 months!  I actually think it is the same infection, everytime he has been off antibiotics for a few days, it pops back up.

Thanks NCBelle!  It was greating meeting you guys too.  Callum is absolutely adorable!  I can't wait to see everyone again next month, hopefully we didn't get anyone sick either!

When you posted about the rough night the other day I was really hoping that wasn't the case.  Hope he feels better soon!

Took him to doc this morning, he has his 4th ear infection since January 7th.  His ear canals are just way too small, we are going to see an ENT on Monday.

He is PITIFUL today!  The worst part is I have a meeting at 3:45 that I absolutely can not miss, so I have to leave my sick little boy with my sitter
