Pooooooooor baby! Ally has been sick since last Friday and was diagnosed with RSV yesterday at the doctor. It is the saddest thing ever, she has been so miserable. Fortunately her lungs sounded fine, so she doesn't have to do any breathing treatments. We just have to wait it out, check her breathing every hour, and give her Tylenol. The doctor said babies usually have it for a good week or longer. :( We've had to do lots of saline nose spray and nose suctioning which she absolutely hates. I feel horrible every time I have to do it. Normally, she's really energetic and will not sit still unless she's sleeping, but since she's been sick all she wants to do is sit in my lap and whimper. It just breaks my heart! Hopefully she'll start getting better soon!

That breaks my heart! That picture is so sad. Sweet baby girl. I hope it passes quickly.
Poor her and poor you it is so hard to have a sick baby. My little niece just got over it, my sis did not go anywhere for 3 weeks with her. Hope she gets better quickly!
PS she is a doll!
