I love having the girls in daycare. I know that might throw some backlash my way but oh, well. To each mom their own. One of the only down sides to it is similar to school. SICKNESS.
The stomach bug made it's way to the girls' daycare and who was the first to catch it? Teagan? No. Kyra? No. Mommy? Yes.
For Kyra and I it was literally just a 24 hour bug with about a day of "recovery finally feel all better time" although, Kyra's bug pulled an ear infection along with it so she's on meds now. Thankfully she had no symptoms other than a cough we took her in for today.
It hit Teagan a little harder. She is still suffering a little bit today from it. She doesn't have a fever or anything but her system is still getting cleaned out and it's starting to get sore. My heart aches for her. She cries every time her body "cleans itself out". All I could think of doing today was soaking her in water as much as possible. So, we had some pool time and some tub time today. I really hope that helps and it's not as bad tomorrow.

Ear infections
Here we go again. My brave trooper has another ear infection. Did we know it? No. Did she have a fever? No. Was she complaining? No.
I took her in because she had developed a slight cough that was going on about 2 weeks and because she had a ¨crazy not herself day¨ yesterday. I slightly (and I stress slightly) thought there could be an ear infection possibility because she had dug in her ears about 2 times in the last few days. She´s NEVER done that before even when she had the last ear infection that lasted 3 months. I thought it might be water in her ears from her baths but it looks like I should start listening to my motherś intuition more often.
The doctor said we caught it at about a 4 on a 1-10 scale so I feel pretty good about that.
I just hope we aren´t on the road to tubes. The thing I really can´t get over is the ear infections never seem to bother her. Please keep Teagan in your thoughts and prayers that this antibiotic works & we don´t have another 3 month ear infection that leads to tubes.
