Ellie and I had a mostly good day. She greeted me with smiles, gave me a bunch of incredible belly laughs, and snuggled and played the afternoon away. I put her on her monitors for her afternoon nap, and she started ringing off. Her breathing rate is high.

Normally, at nap time, she slows her breathing to 20 breaths per minute (bpm). Today, she was ringing off at 65bpm and up. At one point it was up in the 80s. I'm not sure what to make of it, and I am worried. I am soooo worried it's a side effect of the growth hormone, and against my better judgement I've been scaring myself with Google research. Bad mommy, bad! Her heart rate has also been elevated, so I don't know what's going on.

:( It was so hard to leave today.
