Went to the Dr...

I finally took Gavin to the doctor today because he has been congested for months with rattling in his chest and coughing. Also, the past few nights he has been waking up every hour at night crying and not wanting to nap much during the day. I am getting tired fast. The doctor thinks (as I have been suspecting) that he has allergies. He said it can be to anything so we need to try to figure out if there are any triggers. He wants us to investigate for the next few months until he does the IGG and IGE blood testing. I am not sure how we can "figure out" what he is allergic to because he is basically congested ALL THE TIME. The only time he wasn't was today at the Drs office (figures, huh?). Anyway, now Mommy has a sore throat so we are wondering if he has a cold on top of it all that is contributing to his extreme fussiness. Or maybe he is teething? Who knows, but the sleeplessness can be frustrating!! We just want our happy baby back!
Oh, and he weighed in at: 15 lbs 12 oz. He's getting big!
