Lainey is doing much, much, much better. In fact, she now is excited for her breathing treatments because she gets to put the mask on her "nose" and help me push the inhaler so that the medicine can travel through the tube. She'll stand at the bathroom door and cry "nose" over and over to let us know that she's ready for her treatment. She doesn't quite understand that we have to follow a schedule! We have decided, however, to try to give Lainey the breathing treatments during the day only. Last night we didn't want to try to awaken her for a treatment because she was doing so much better before bedtime and she had quickly fallen into a deep sleep at her normal bedtime. Throughout the night she slept pretty soundly which allowed us to sleep pretty soundly as well.
She's also quite amused with the humidifier in her room. It's one of those animal humidifiers; we have the one that looks like a cow. She tries to take it apart and pick it up and has made "messys" because she has spilled the water on the floor (more than once). We hung out around the house all day today and she hasn't had a fever since yesterday evening so I think we're on the mend... :) I hope so, at least.
In other news, I went to the doctor today for my weekly checkup and I'm still just 1 cm dilated and about 50% effaced. The baby is very comfy inside my tummy, just like Lainey was. She said that we could schedule an induction for sometime during week #40 (the week of the 15th), but we'd make that decision at my next appointment. :)

I'm so glad she is finally on the mend.
Our doctor said the hospital is chock full of children with bronchiolitis. Let me know if we can help at all.
