It got to be great mommy time, and he got used to it really quickly. Great reading time... don&#39;t worry, he&#39;ll get used to it!Cristyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15462991326707367941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4937909430486509189.post-37625705049491817092009-11-28T10:59:31.306-06:002009-11-28T10:59:31.306-06:00I am sorry to hear you have to do the breathing treatments, April! I have no experience with this and hope I don&#39;t get any anytime soon. But I do know that any time you have to &quot;make&quot; your child do something that is beneficial but uncomfortable for them is extremely hard for the momma!! I also know that you are doing a great job! We also sing repitious renditions of Itsy Bitsy Spider in the car and other places. Old McDonald works well for us, too! And you can drag it out for LOOONG periods. Wish you the best and keeping your family in our thoughts and prayers!Amberhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07742376158947711893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4937909430486509189.post-45614194320095208012009-11-28T06:39:23.003-06:002009-11-28T06:39:23.003-06:00When you start something new with your child,I know it can be scary at first. Jada had to start breathing treatments a little before she turned two. This just became part of our routine. At first she was like Harrison and we had to make her put it on, but eventually it just became so routine for her, she didn&#39;t think a thing about it. Somedays she had to do it every 4 hours (usually the times she had pneumonia), but other than that, just once everynight before bed. She had to use her nebulizer every night until we moved her to Florida. Hang in there, everything will be okay! Praying for you and that precious little Harrison.Tiffanyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00264508770483333831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4937909430486509189.post-45367370466395603752009-11-28T06:18:07.074-06:002009-11-28T06:18:07.074-06:00I&#39;m so sorry. We have to use the nebulizer with Dillan every so often when he gets a wheezing cough. I can&#39;t imagine having to do it every couple of hours every day! <br /><br />You could try putting on a Praise Baby DVD during the treatment. This helps calm our little guy during his treatments. The bubbles are a great idea too but would be hard to do by yourself if you&#39;re already holding the mask on his face. :)Mandihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06143093394307413930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4937909430486509189.post-24140859276420551282009-11-27T23:55:14.845-06:002009-11-27T23:55:14.845-06:00Did the doc diagnose anything? Croup? Asthma? Bronchitis? Poor little fella! My youngest inherited my (very mild) asthma, so I sure do understand the breathing treatment yuckies. The worst was doing every four hours, round the clock, breathing treatments when she had pneumonia at 1 yr old. yucko!Lizhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01606570803094936934noreply@blogger.com
