This is such a great post as far as the advice goes. When it comes to little squish I hope he feels better soon. I also just read on facebook that you got sick too, so I hope you are able to find some time to rest and feel better soon also! I wish I was closer to help out a bit and give you a big hug.

Very good advice. Especially about keeping your cool when talking to the doctor. It's easy to be frustrated/scared/angry when your kid is sick, but doctors respond much better to parents that aren't screaming at them to make their child better. Hope he feels better soon 🙂

Fantastic post Emily!! A similiar thing happened to my Lillian when she was only a few months old and caused her to spend a few days in the Children's Hospital!! A great reminder to parents to be the voice of their little ones, not only for health reasons but every day life reason's, too.

I'm hoping little Squish Man feels better real soon. I've been thinkin about him!! Hugs and Snuggles from Dawn!! ;)

He looks so sad. He is lucky to have such an amazing mom to keep him comforted and safe.

You are a fantastic mama!

So sorry Squishy isn't feeling well, hope he starts feeling better soon.

I completely agree with you about being your child's voice. When J was 11 months old and was having problems urinating the doctors wanted me to wait hours before going in. It had already been 15 or so hours as it was so I pressed them to let me bring him in right then...that god I did since he ended up in the OR a few hours later due to a block in his penis.
