Sobbing at daycare this am...me not DD

So my baby girl has had a cold for a week that's gotten progressively worse. The last 2 nights i averaged about 3 hours of broken sleep each night. Then worked 9 hour days on my feet. So anyway at 6 am she started choking. She turned a nice shade of purple and I had to suction her mouth& throat. Mucus came out everywhere. Ds2 started crying because it scared him. She sobbed for 15 minutes. I felt so guilty taking her to daycare because I know she didn't feel well but not bad enOugh for me to call in. By the time I get to dc my guilt and emotions were boiling over. I'm telling dc teachers what happened and I started ugly crying. The hugged me and comforted me. Ds2 (poor kid) saw all of this as well. As I was leaving his class he called me back and said "mama you're the best mama ever please don't cry". So I cried some more. I feel like my job nor my family are getting 100%. the bright side to all this is dh and I have gotten stronger as a couple. I know lack of sleep is getting to me as well. I haven't slept more than 4 hours in 13 weeks. I know things will get better, just not sure when. I just feel like I'm sinking. (thanks for letting me vent here)

oh goodness! so sorry you had such a rough time. Ben did the turning blue from mucous thing on me. so scary. so glad we had the nose frida!
can you pump at all so DH can help with a night shift or a good, long nap for you?? sleep deprivation makes everything so stressful!
and yay for DS#2 - he knows what a good mama he has! what a sweet boy!
I know you are struggling, but just remind yourself this is not forever! More sleep will come!!!

So sorry that you are having a rough day/week/month. I'm praying for some sleep for you. I hope that you can take a little time for yourself, even if its just a ten minute bath.
Your son is so sweet - you must be doing a great job for him to be so sweet and caring. I know that its hard, but keep remembering that you are a fantastic mom and it is all worth it in the end.
