Well our little man has pneumonia! I brought him into the emergency room because he had a cough for about two days that sounded like it was getting worse. They listened to his chest and decided to take x-rays finding that he had the starting of pneumonia. I am so glad I brough him in because we caught it before it got to far into his little lungs. They put him on a heavy antibiotic and of course gave him a booster of the antibiotic before we left the hospital. I brought him back in four days after the first visit because he sounded so much worse. They took more x-rays and he was perfectly clear, I guess you have to sound worse before it is all cleared up with pneumonia. He is doing much better now though. He is pretty much back to himself. I do have some pictures of him getting breathing treatments he didn't really like them at first but then he just sat there sticking his tongue in and out. It was pretty cute! In these pics he is pretty mad though. They said the antibiotic will stay in his system for about two weeks even though I only had to give it to him for 5 days so he will be just fine thank goodness. Im greatful for those mommy instincts.
