So, our Pearly has it.
Totally bummed by the diagnosis, but can't say it was a complete surprise. The constant cough, allergies, congestion, and recurring bouts of reactive airway disease and bronchiolitis meant we were probably going to be headed down this route.
So now we're back on Singulair and I spent yesterday tracking down a nebulizer (which I've decided I'm going to let her decorate and cover with stickers or something) so we can help Emilia do two breathing treatments a day for the next month. We're taking her to go see a pediatric allergist/pulmonologist on Monday so we'll have more info then.
Emilia has to sit for about 10 minutes to do one treatment. So far, we have been wholly unsuccessful at getting her to sit still for that long. We've had to resort to using Backyardigans and Curious George to entertain her. Of course, so far, we haven't made it through an entire treatment.
Emilia decided Baby needed some breathing treatment as well.
