Lyvi tested positive for RSV. These are all her meds she is on (pictured above). On Monday she woke up with a nasty cough and by the afternoon she was running a high fever, from there she just got worse. Lyvi is a busy body and not a cuddly baby at all, you know she is sick when all she wants to do is cuddle. She was so miserable. I finally got her into the doc on Thursday and yep she tested positive for RSV, she also had a bad ear infection and a touch of bronchitis. He put her on steroids and antibiotics. He said her sats are fine right now( 92%) and she is older, that is the good news. The bad news she is contagious for 10 more days and is now on 5 different prescription meds. We have to keep a close eye on her but she is doing so much better now. I am glad I got her in before she got worse and had to get admitted to the hospital. RSV can be so scary, she still has a nasty cough but hopefully the steroids will do the trick. Also, she lost those 2 pounds she put on and is back down to 14.1 pounds but she is eating better now so hopefully she will put it back on soon.
