It seems that’s all we do with Samuel lately.  But, of course, he’s worth the worry.  He’s had a cough for several weeks that has gotten worse with time.  No other symptoms, just this cough that is worse at night and makes him sound like a purring cat at times.  Saw the doctor on Monday and she was convinced it was pertussis (whooping cough).  And after some reading, I was convinced too…he showed all the signs.  But the test for it came back negative.  That’s good.  But now what.  We’ll just deal with the cough.  Some nights he cries thru it because I don’t think he can catch his breathe.  On Tuesday night, his lips and tongue turned blue during a coughing fit, and we called the doctor. **Sigh**  par for the course with this little guy.  But he’s still as smiley and content as ever…that’s the good news.  And he’s trying to sit up on his own and very proud of himself.  He’s also sticking his tongue out a lot and starting to imitate us.  I love this baby!
