After a couple more trips up the ladder, I started hearing phlegm in her breath and she started wheezing. I could also see that her breathing was becoming labored. I switched us over to the swings to decrease her breathing and she was fine in another few minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Well, I told Melissa about this and she got really mad at me (as she usually does), saying that the doctor had already checked her out and it wasn&#8217;t anything but allergies. I couldn&#8217;t talk to her anymore about it because of her ruffled feathers. Of course, we all know (well, everyone except Melissa) that asthma -is- allergies. Also that some of the main symptoms of asthma is the wheezing itself. I hope that Melissa will &#8220;figure out&#8221; that it&#8217;s asthma and start carrying an emergency inhaler for her soon. In the mean time, there isn&#8217;t much to be done for Julia&#8230; if she starts wheezing, then decrease her activity level. Julia could outgrow the asthma&#8230; let&#8217;s hope that happens!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At dinner with my sister and parents last night, I told my sister that when Julia exerts herself and becomes winded, I can hear phlegm forming in her throat.
