Hyperventilating

We took a drive down to Omaha over the weekend to visit TJ's brother. We had a lot of fun visiting with his family. But, Saturday night after I put Sophie to bed she woke up screaming after an hour. This was by far the worst scream she has ever done and we couldn't calm her down. Then she started hyperventilating. I have never been so scared with her. We took her temperature and that was normal. So we decided that she must be teething and gave her tylenol. After about 15 minutes we were able to calm her down (or the tylenol was). It took a bit longer to get her breathing back to normal. I didn't want to go to sleep for fear that she would stop breathing. When she fell back asleep she slept the rest of the night and woke up just as happy as could be. Her molars have definitely come in more than just the tips so I hope that was the problem. I can't imagine how it feels to teeth but I am sure glad that she won't remember it!!!

  1. I'm glad that she was okay. It is so scary as a parent when your little one does something like that. I never knew how much I could worry about one person until I became a mom.
