At only 2 weeks old, our sweet little baby girl got a cold. Shortly after, it turned into RSV. I watched for the signs like her doctor told me to, and I called his office. They couldn't get her in until the afternoon, and because she was still so young, they told me to go ahead and take her to the ER. So I called Rob, he came home from work, we took Chloe to a friend's house and headed to the hospital. They checked her out, tested her, and determined that she did have RSV and they were going to have to admit her to the pediatric ward. I had no idea it was so serious. Once we got to her room, the nurses started flooding the room, gathering around her, getting her IV in, getting oxygen on her, it was crazy. I just sat in the corner and cried while she laid on the bed screaming. They told me later that they were very concerned when she came in. Her skin looked gray and there was barely any oxygen exchange in her lungs. She stayed in the hospital for 6 long days. Once she could finally keep her oxygen levels up while she was sleeping, they let us take her home.
