Well we ended up back in the doctors today. Bryce had a bad night sats weren't great. They swabed him in the office and its RSV. As of right now he is on O2 24/7. Dr K said if we have to go up past 500cc's he will be admitted adn also if he doen't start drinking more he will be admitted. Keeping our fingers crossed he gets better soon.
He also has an ear infection just to add to the fun!

Pics and sick....
Well looks like winter is officially here for us!
Bryce has gotten his first MAJOR URI this winter, hopefully his last. (doubt it but one can hope) and MRSA! Yup MRSA! Leave it to Bryce to get that! I have no idea how....
Last week Bryce has what looked like a pimple on his back well a few days passed and the "pimple" took on a life of its own... It was huge, red and pussy (TMI I know) so needless to say we took a trip to pedi.
She has to cut it open and drain it while we were there to test it for MRSA, of course it is. So she started Bactrim. The next day Thurs he started with a cough... I let it go thinking he was on antibiotics and they would help.
Well come the weekend he had gotten worse, cough was pretty bad. Sats were still good though so I did nebs and left it alone. Monday he was real bad coughing and wheezy low grade temp. I took him into pedi they started him on prednisone, continue nebs every 4 hours, continue abx.
Tuesday night comes along, I gave him his before bed nebs and layed him down. Went in to check him he was satting at 87! Thats very low for him... So I turned up his O2 from 100cc's to 500 cc's by the time I was done and could only get him to sat 94.
Called the doc today brought him to Pedi and Pulmonary (otherwise we have had to go to the hospital) pulmonary thinks he will be fine, but he does have and ear infection (eventhough he has been on ABX for 7 days now) and an RSV Type virus. Continue meds as we were and watch closely!
THANK GOD no hospital! He has been very cranky and uncomfortable but I think it would be worse in the hospital....
Anyway here are some semi recent pics:
