So if you read my blog Friday, you saw that Brock had pneumonia. He got a shot of antibiotics, antibiotics to take for 10 days and medicine t break up all the stuff in his chest along with his breathing treatments. He has not had a fever since Sunday, his energy level has been coming back, and he was sleeping through the night so I thought he was fine. My mother of the year moment was allowing him to go to the Jumping Party- but I must add he had a blast and laughed and smiled the entire time. Today, Brock had his re-check at the doctor. When the doctor listened to his lungs he decided they needed a chest X-Ray. Luckily they have a machine there. Only problem is I am pregnant, which meant I could not go with him. His screams were so loud and once I ever heard him say "I scared". So here I am 34 weeks pregnant crying in the waiting area because my baby is scared and I can't help. Anyways, his x-ray was not good, and his right lung looked bad. The doctor mentioned he did not think on Friday that Brock was as sick as he was/is. I feel so bad for taking him to jump. What kind of mom takes their kid with pneumonia to jump in bounce houses?
I forgot to add we get to go to the doctor every week for the next 6 weeks for a chest x-ray.

From the pics below, it is clear he was having a good time. And all of the symptoms he normally gives like not sleeping well were not there. I would have done the same thing if I thought one of mine was feeling better.
Poor Brock! Don't feel bad about taking to the party. How could you have known that it wasn't better. I don't think you are a bad mom at all. I would have been doing the same thing outside of the room too.
How scary! Okay, I would have freaked if I would have had to stay in the waiting room. Poor baby!!
I would've gone to the Jump house too if he was feeling that good! Don't worry...you're not a bad mom. Maybe you could take someone with you to the next appt that could go in to the x-ray room with him. Poor little guy :(
Oh that makes me so sad. The worst medical experience that I ever had with Chase was when they thought that he had RSV and they did a test where they put a huge stick thing up in his nose!!! He cried so hard!!! Makes me so sad!
Okay, I am a neonatal icu nurse and I would've taken him if he was feeling so well and had no fever! Don't worry about it. He will survive and there was absolutely no way for you to know how he was really doing. Hang in there!
