Caroline had to have a sleep study done on Friday night. We will not know the results until later in the week. She has always had irregular breathing when she sleeps but it seems to be getting louder and other people are seeming to notice as well. I didn't really worry too much until Tracey heard her one night and told me I should take her to the doctor and I asked a few of my nursing friends and they seemed to think it was a big deal. I knew it was time to take her when I would count how many seconds between breaths and she had some apnea and then one night I even pulled out the video camera so that the doctor could see what she was doing- I felt a little crazy at that point and took her into the ENT. (We have a great ENT if you ever need one). Most likely it is something she will just outgrow or it may be related to her reflux (which we didnt even know she still had until the doctor scoped her) but better safe than sorry! The sleep study went great until they woke us up and booted us out at around 5:45 in the morning! Thanks to all of you that called to check on her! And yes, she does have a black eye----she had a tumble off the bed last week!
