Thrush and Croup

Yes, Lexi and I have thrush again and poor Alegra has Croup. The past few nights have been really bad with Alegra. She has been getting up, uncomfortable, and not able to breath that well. I called our doctor this morning and Wednesdays are his day off. I decided we didn't need another terrible night so I called our friend Kathy's office and got an appointment with her. She said Alegra had Croup and gave her a dose of medicine in her office and gave me a pill to take home that should help alleviate the barking hoarse cough. While we were there she noticed (it isn't too hard to notice) Lexi's mouth. I told her that we had thrush again but this time the violet medicine didn't seem to be as effective. She prescribed me some Nystatine for me and Lexi. Hopefully this will help both of us. It has been a little rough because Lexi has also been getting up alot at night and I am not sure if it because she is uncomfortable or she is just getting used to me coming in to check on her. I think once I know we are all better I need we need to do the "cry out" to get some good hours of sleep!

Sweet, Sweet Alegra....so prone to injury and accident. She constantly has a scratch on her face, a bump on her forehead, or a band aid on her knee.

My purple mouth baby!

Everything is purple, it is sort of annoying. Look at the toes of her jammies, purple!
