first of all our laptop broke. and our other computer is a pain in the butt to use, so i got lazy and decided not to update. second of all ive been a busy momma. easton has been sick, and to the doctors, and to hospitals all this month. ill explain later. third of all im exhausted! being a mom is so exhausting but so worth it!
about three weeks ago i noticed eastons breathing has been really rough. it almost sounds as if he is wheezing. i was really worried so i took him to the ER in hasting. HUGE MISTAKE! anyways i got there and they took x ray and were really worried. they told me that he had bronchiolitis, and that he would need a nebulizer and steriods. that night in the hospital i have never seen myself so worried and sick. i realized i loved this little boy more than anything. not that i didnt before, but this was true love. i hated to see him in pain, and miserable. he is a fighter. over a course of 5 days i gave him his medicine, and neb. he seemed to not be getting better with his breathing. so i decided to take him to Devos Childrens Hospital. What they told me there was that he had trachemolasia. they desrcribed what it was and told me i needed to see and ENT as soon as possible.
two days ago easton had to get his four month shots. :( shots are always the worst, but what happens after can be bad too. babies can get fevers after they get shots, but with tylenol it should go down.
at about 12 that night i got up to feed him and he was burning up. poor guy :( i gave him tylenol and it broke. i got up and went to school the next day while my mom watched him. she texted me and said that easton has had fevers, and he was vommiting. i made an appointment asap with his pediatrician. she took one look at him, and said he need to go to an ER. so me, jeff and easton went all the way to GR. they took xrays of him there, and told me he was severely constipated and dehydrated. i had to switch formulas, and he is now on a acid reflex medicine.
over these months, i have watched myself grow into a person that compasionate, loving, and a strong mother. i am even proud of myself. its a lot of work, and tough at times, but i know i have a little boy that loves me and looks up to me. i will never fail him only make him proud. God has gotten me through these tough times. i would be NO WHERE without him. i pray he keeps me strong and never lets me give up , and i will continue to do. faith is so strong and i incourage everyone to have a closer relationship with God. he is the one person who will never let you down. he will always be there for you and the end of the day.
