Mady and I woke up at 5AM on Sat. She had a horrible rash all over. I thought at first she had gotten too hot. Mary-Kate had very sensitive skin as a baby. She had eczema. It was awful. Mady's breakout wasn't like that. It looked like measles. I took her to the Sat. clinic and they said she had a virus. She has had no symptoms except for this rash. Her pediatrician said she would look worse before she would get better. Boy was he not kidding. She isn't contagious anymore he said. Today she looks blistered. She has been super fussy. Sure hope she gets well soon. I feel so helpless.
Mary-Kate got up with us this morning at 2AM. She said, "Mom what has happened to our baby?" She wanted to help rock Mady to sleep. My husband has been such a big help. Glad he can entertain MK while I love on Mady and try to make her comfortable.

Feel better Mady. Glad you have such good helpers :) Get some rest too.
Oh no! Poor baby! I remember Jacob getting rashes as a baby too, and it got worse before it got better, and I felt helpless too. Sorry you're going through this. Such is life with a baby. Hope she gets better REAL soon!!!! Prayers for Mady!
Oh no! Needless to say, you probably haven't enjoyed your weekend very much? Feel better soon, Baby Girl!
Poor Mady!! M-K is such a sweet and loving big sister. I love that she called her "our baby".
I am so sorry! I hope she is better now. How stressful...and tiring for you.
