Morphing

I don't know what's happening really... my sweet angelic little boy has become a growling, whining, pitiful, snot-filled grump! Aedan caught his first cold over the weekend and I'm about ready to run away! This is me being dramatic of course.

As colds go, this one isn't too bad. He's got a stuffed up nose that makes it hard to breathe and there's no use using the pacifier to soothe him since he can't suck and breathe at the same time. Forget about sniffing...he hasn't learned that skill yet so I'm constantly attacking him with the booger sucker to at least give him a little relief.

There's no comfy place to lay him. He can't really lay on his back for any length of time because the snot pools up in his nose. I feel awful for him. Tylenol seems to be working but who knows really. He's still growling and looking at me like I did something to him.

I thought breastmilk was supposed to prevent these things from happening? Guess not.
