Poor Norah has allergy issues due to the pollen. No fever, just cough and congestion. She's not fussy or anything so the dr. said there is nothing to do except saline drops and suction her out. She was on oxygen and in the NICU for monitoring right after she was born. Apparantly this is pretty common for c-section babies, but it was so hard to not even be able to hold her while she was across the hospital hooked up to feeding tube and oxygen. Anyway, I think this has made me weird. Today, Norah and I went to Target for formula and I could barely let go of the buggy. (This is due to my friend who has watched way too many Lifetime movies of freaks that steal babies and tells me to "be careful") then, when I was checking out a lady from church snuck up behind me. Not Nice! Bless her heart, I about pounced her! I feel like a big ol Mama Bear! I don't remember being this weird with Troy! Don't get me wrong, I am perfectly fine with friends and family holding her and loving on her. Troy is at daycare part time while I am on maternity leave, so he goes 3 days a week. When I take him in, ofcourse I take Norah in with me. Oh, the little hands of the 3 year old room! Some of them just look while others are all in her face coughing and touching...Oh My! I do not do well with that either! Thankfully the director told me not to take her in there, to leave her in her office while I pick up/drop off Troy. Thank goodness. I don't wanna go mama bear on the poor 3 year olds! I guess I had a tiny glimpse of what it would be like to have your tiny one sick and in the hospital and germs are really freaking me out this go round.
I am rambling, I know. Sorry, just random thoughts for all 3 people that read my blog! I only have 2 full weeks until I go back to work and I am sooo not looking forward to it. I love my job but She is still so little that it makes me sad.
