4 Month Update

Chris and I took Ava to see Dr. Rocco for her 4 month wellness exam tonight only to find out Ava was too sick for the exam and shots! She started with a cough again on Sunday but we didn't think much of it because she didn't have a runny nose or a temperature. Dr. Rocco listened to her and said she was wheezing. She moved to her ears and asked if Ava had been cranky lately because she had an ear infection. We were both surprised because aside from a couple extra wimpers here and there, Ava has been her usual happy self. Dr. Rocco also told us there is a possibility that Ava could have asthma because of the family history and because children with a milk protein allergy are more likely to develop asthma. At this point she said Ava is a little too young for her to know if the wheezing is from a cold or asthma related. We're keeping our fingers crossed for just a symptom of the cold! We ended up rescheduling her wellness exam for during spring break and will see Dr. Rocco again on Good Friday for a follow up for her cough and ear infection. Hopefully the antibiotic will clear her ear infection up.
