Dr. Visit 3/2/10

Ella Kate has been coughing lately and has had some congestion, so I took her to the doctor's office. It turns out that she has RSV, but the doctor talked like it wasn't really as bad as people make it out to be. Apparently, it is basically the same thing that causes the common cold. There is nothing they can do for this, however; it just has to run its course. Luckily, she has not had a fever and the coughing and congestion seem to be the only symptoms for her. He said that it could take a couple of weeks to clear up, though. On a brighter note, she is growing and now weighs 14 lbs. 10.5 oz.!
