Lily has been unable to shake her cough for the last couple months. And in the recent days, I thought I heard her wheezing. Being an asthmatic myself, I know how awful it is to gasp for air thus I was worried about her. Her doctor assured me that it wasn't asthma, rather she was still conjested and a breathing treatment with the nebulizer would help. She was NOT happy about that. I had to swaddle her in a hospital gown to keep her from flailing her arms and legs, but trying to keep that mask on her shaking head was quite a challenge. After 15 minutes of crying her head off, she was so exhausted that she fell asleep during the treatment and I had to hold her nodding chin so that she could breathe in the medicine. Poor baby. At least it worked.
