What a busy time we've had....since our last post we have had many visits to the doctor, where as of now we still don't know really what is causing her cough, maybe allergies or bronchitis...hopefully we will find out as soon as her labwork comes back. Yes, LABWORK!! We had to take her in for blood tests, three times..they can only take so much from babys at one time. So the first time we take her and the lady gets a little out of one arm, and then it stops, so they call another guy in and he is able to get all they need, while Maile is trying to jump and wriggle from my arms. After they are done daddy holds her and she is happy, still a little upset, but happy its over. Fast forward a few days, we go back for round 2, and this time we request the guy who did such a great job last time. They say "oh the other guy loves babies and he'll be great..." NOPE!!! it was worse than the last time, daddy held her this time and he thought he was gonna rip her arm off, or that he'd bruised her and it was the worst experience of my life, and he wasn't going to do it again, the guy couldn't find it and he bruised her arm pretty bad. So the lady who checked us in tells us "next time we'll make sure you get chad..." chad being the guy who did so well llthe last time. fast forward some more, we go in for the final time, we get chad and it goes pretty painlessly and finally, hopefully we'll figure out whats causing her cough.
I think it might be allergies, since after we do breathing treatments for a while she gets better, then we'll go somewhere with lots of dust or hairy dogs or outside with lots of allergens floating around and her cough gets worse!! Hopefully we'll have an answer soon!

It's so hard to have a sick baby! They can't tell you what's wrong and it is hard to see them not feel good. I hope you get some good news from the lab work.
OH my Harm, sounds awful, but it will be worth finding out what it is. Oh the joys of motherhood !!! I missed all of your blog updates and feel like I haven't talked to your forever since you went back to work.... Take Care and hope Maile feels better soon. Talk to you soon too
Oh forgot to say that it's hard to read the font color is dark beige on the black background.
Love you
Aunty Annie
