Casey had her 18 month check up today. All looked well except they found that she has a heart murmur. While it could be absolutely nothing, there is a chance that it is something. The Dr said that sometimes little kids will get a heart murmur when they are growing and it will go away. So I am praying for that. They also said that it usually causes a cough, which we've been dealing with for now 3 months. She will wake up and still be coughing so hard that she's gagging. So I have to give her a breathing treatment and that usually helps, but this has been going on for so long, now we have a clue as to why.
We had to make an appointment to see a childrens cardiologist which is on May 5th. Please say a prayer for my baby girl. The thought of something being wrong with her is just tearing me apart. I'd like to drown my sorrows in a big greasy cheeseburger instead of this protein shake. I let hubs know that I want mexican food and a margarita tonight followed by a vodka tonic when we get home.
Re: My baby's dr appt today :(
You and your baby girl are in my thoughts and prayers. Hopefully, this won't be a big deal and she'll grow out of it.
Thank you, I was hoping to hear of similar situations if I posted about it. I'm hoping for the same outcome!
