Traylor has been having this really bad cough lately. It only shows its face at night. We have given her medication and rubbed Mentholatum on her chest for the last couple nights.
So last night I decide to give the medication and her rub down a little bit earlier to see if it'll work before she is in bed.
Well........................
It didn't. Last night was terrible! I thought she was going to hock up a lung. I went in at 9:30 and gave her some more nighttime cough medicine. I then stayed with her for awhile and rubbed her back and chest. It calmed her a little.
But then she was calling for me at 10:30. So again I stayed with her awhile. I finally went to sleep around midnight. But she kept waking me up with her coughing. It sounded so bad that my chest hurt from hearing her.
In the morning she was so tired from her interrupted sleep. But she doesn't cough really during the day, so she was fine.
So tonight to be on the safe side, I went and bought medicine just for cough and a plug in for the wall that has Mentholatum in it. I also put the humidifier in her room.
So GO FIGURE that now that I have everything needed to help her sleep good, she isn't coughing anymore.
I guess the jokes on me.... LOL

Go figure...doesn't it always happen like that? What a good mom you are. You will be blessed. I'm glad to hear she is feeling better.
hehehe. I have to laugh at your expense, but only because I've been there, done that.
