The past few days have been a bit of a trial for us. Truth be told it is more so this for spyMommy than myself. Arwen has not been sleeping well and we haven’t been able to figure out exactly what the problem is. She’s been irritable and quite congested. Yesterday we felt that maybe it was allergies. spyMommy and myself have been hit hard by whatever it is in the air, so our symptoms matched hers.
Today her tempurature was taken and it was a little high. So maybe it’s a cold. She constantly wants to be held and won’t sleep on her own for more than 30 minutes at a time it seems. We gave her a little Tylenol and flushed her nose with saline and that seemed to help for a little bit, but a text message just received tells me she’s back to her fussing.
No one likes feeling helpless and I am certainly not excluded from that. It is frustrating and pitying to look at her and not know how to help. Luckily, depending on how you look at it I guess, she has a doctor’s appointment on Monday and if this hasn’t subsided by then we’ll at least have someone’s attention.
