Another Heart Attack For Mommy...

Some of you may recognize that familiar blog title, except this time it was Miss Kylee. Yesterday afternoon Bret left to go get lunch and I had Kylee cracking up, a little too much apparently. She refluxed and it came out of her mouth and both nostrils. Nothing is scarier than seeing your baby struggle to breathe for minutes. I ended up calling 911 and she had for the most part caught her breath by the time they got there. Her lungs sounded ok but they took her to be evaluated further in the emergency room. I was prepared for such a situation and had the "Baby Emergency Bag" ready (clothes, formula, toys, blankets, insurance info etc.) to send with the ambulance. I met little miss at the hospital and she appeared to be fine and let me tell you that girl had those paramedics wrapped around her little finger - and tight! After a few hours of watching her sats (blood oxygen saturation) and a few xrays she was released to go home, thank goodness. Ugh crazy babies keep me on my toes... that's for sure.

  6. Memories of Matt's first breath holding spell, he was a premie too. Born at 28 weeks, at about age 1 maybe a bit younger he began holding his breath. Would go into a full siezure, I'd call 911 A LOT! Glad you survived and hope that's the last one of these scares for you. Rebecca
    PS. They are all SO cute OMG
