Update on Jonah

I took Jonah to the doctor. Jason made me do it since I am the nurse and knew a little more about what was going on than he does. The twins were napping and I didn't want to wake them... OR take them to a GERM-FILLED docs office!
They weighed Jonah. He weighed 47.2lbs with his heavy coat and shoes on. He had a temp of 99.3 with Motrin on board. His pulse Ox was 88% and then she changed fingers and it bumped up to 90%! Normal is 96 to 100%.
The poor kid had went upstairs and took a nap this morning (something that he never does) and when he woke after about 3 hours... he acted better. But, by time we got to the doctors office he was worn out and tired.
The doc put him on a z-pak. I am hoping it works and he gets better quickly. She said his lungs were pretty congested.

I hope Jonah feels better soon. Poor kid. This horrible thing is going around right now. I still can't stop coughing and neither can the bubs. He's very lucky to have Nurse CC to look after him :)
