Pneumonia + Asthma UPDATE II

Had a check-up today and Charlotte is starting to get better!!! Still have to continue with nebulizer treatments every 4 hours for the next 5 days, oral antibiotic and oral steroid treatments. Can't wait til she is off this steroid - it's like having a monster child! She can't fall asleep to nap and, as a result, gets super crabby. Poor thing. She is also going through a major separation anxiety stage which makes things much worse! No one will do but Mama! (Can't even use the ladies room alone!)

BTW - Doc definitely believes she has a mild case of asthma. We have a little reading to do and now know the signs to look for. Not too surprising since Daddy was diagnosed around the same age.
