So, Sunday, we went to church as normal. Part way through Sacrament Meeting, I took Kate out to change her diaper. While we were in the hall, Kate started making noises like she couldn't really breathe. It was almost like she couldn't quite catch her breath. She turned pale and kind of went limp against me. I went and got Josh. By the time he came out, she had fallen asleep and we couldn't really get her to wake up. So, we loaded her in her car seat and went straight to the Emergency Room.
Josh and I spent six hours with Kate in the ER. They did a bunch of tests and finally concluded that she had a mild form of pneumonia. They wanted to monitor her overnight, so we were admitted to the Pediatrics unit Sunday night.
Except for when she was being poked and prodded, which was a lot, Kate was her happy self in the hospital. She was smiling and talking with the nurses and doctors.
The hospital gave Kate a little hospital gown to sleep in. Just like the adult ones- they tied in the back and didn't really cover very much.
Here's the little I.V. they put in her ankle. She had a bunch of different things monitoring her throughout the night. The doctor came and checked on her Monday morning and said that she looked really good. We were able to bring her home Monday morning.
This definitely does not look like a sick baby. She is on some medicine and has a little cough, but she doesn't act sick. She has been her same happy self since being home! It was a really scary event, but we are just glad that Kate is alright. We love her and are so grateful that she is healthy!
