Asthma and Eczema

SOoo our little Grace has been a little under the weather since sunday! Weezing, sneezing, coughing, and whining. We went to Urgent care monday evening and they told us it was a Virus and a Rash(on her tummy), no RSV, lungs clear, ears clear! They gave us an antihistamine(yay) and a cream. So she goes to daycare today and straight up REFUSES to take anything from the bottle. SO all day long she only took 3 oz! she normally takes a 4 oz in the morning then 3, 8oz bottles at daycare! So back to the doctor we went. They said her ears were clear but she was definatly weezing. She starts weezing it seems like everytime the weather changes or she gets a little sick, so they diagnosed us with Asthma and gave us a steroid treament to start. They also said the rash looked like Eczema. Soooo the good news is she doesn't have an infection in her lungs or ears BUT it looks like the Asthma is here to stay (at least when its cold outside). She can't get enough air when she takes a bottle so that explains that.
