Croup

So Gianna has been in daycare now for almost 3 months. So far she has had a cold, stomach bugs (both times she had this I got the stomach flu and had to go to the ER), and now Croup!!

Croup is breathing difficulty accompanied by a "barking" cough. Croup, which is swelling around the vocal cords, is common in infants and children and can have a variety of causes.

She is also teething right now, so needless to say come bed time, she is not a happy camper. Croup worsens at night, so hopefully when it passes she will be able to sleep again.

We definitely are looking forward to July 1 to start with our full time nanny- aka our new employee...grandma!!
