Parenting after 35

My poor kid.

I feel so bad. Sydney has a wicked cold. And it hit her like a ton of bricks too.

She had crappy naps yesterday so I was expecting a meltdown Thanksgiving night. I could not have been more wrong. She was an angel. Funny, sweet, happy... just awesome.

Then I put her down for the night and noticed that she just could not get confortable (or so it seemed). She tossed and turned and eventually started crying. SO unlike her! So I went in and her breathing was awful! Just like that - sick.

I tried to get her to sleep a bunch of times, but since she only sleeps on her belly, it was not happening. I guess that every time she put her head down, her nose ran. Plus, she was just having a hard time breathing.

We slept in the recliner for a while, then in my bed, propped with pillows. Looks like I will have to re-Ferber-ize after it runs it's course.

Re: My poor kid.

  • It must be the crappy weather. Callie went this morning to the pedi  because of a crappy cold and they put on her antibiotics and the nebulizer. I have been using the humidifieer for two days but now she has green boogies..Feel better Sydney!

  • Awww... poor Sydney! I hope it passes soon.
  • Poor Sydney, colds suck!  Fortunately we never have to re-sleep train after S is sick because his bed is the only place he will sleep!

  • I feel your pain - Ellie has had a terrible cold, ear infection since last week.  A potential bright side for you - I sleep with Ellie on the couch for 2-3 nights last week to keep her upright and drain, and she had no problem going back to the crib and sleeping well. So you may not need to re sleep train!
  • I hope Sydney feels better soon!  I've been so lucky re: colds and Aaron. But I know my luck will eventually run out there.

    Hopefully you won't have to re-Ferber-ize. Maybe she'll surprise you. But at least you know what to expect now.
