This weekend we didn't do much of anything. Christian has been congested. Not in the lower lungs but up in the throat and nose. I was wondering my brains out trying to figure out how in the world he could catch a cold because he hadn't been exposed to ANYONE that had a cold.
At one point he got really upset and was crying really loudly and his cheeks were flush. I put my finger in his mouth to feel his teeth and sure enough he has another big, fat, mean molar poking through! I figured it out...he's teething.
So he hasn't been 100% with all the drooling, extra secretions, and general irritability. But even so, it hasn't held him back one bit when it comes to his tone and therapies. In fact, this morning we went to our 2nd to last outpatient OT therapy and he did great! Relaxed, no increased tone, responding to voice by moving his head back and forth and searching for specific voices and sounds, grabbing for toys, far better spine alignment...he did great!
Hopefully, he'll feel better tomorrow!
