The baby has the scariest cough today. Earlier this week it was just an occasional CACK, and now it's a much-too-long series of hacking and gagging that makes me think her uvula will detach and fly out onto her hebrew alphabet play mat. And of course, I run into her room every time, because it's when she STOPS coughing that I think she's asphyxiating. You don't give the Heimlich if the victim is coughing, right? Coughing is good, stopping and turning blue is not. She has not turned blue. All is well.
On the bright side, I don't need to rely on the baby monitor. I can hear her heart-stopping cough attacks all over the apartment.
Can someone else's child give you premature grays?
