I always, always had to keep her covered up at night, because she got cold easily. Let us know what you find out.

I say cough, but it was really more of a honk!
Soo hard to describe. I mean I could see it being described as a honk, a really weird honk... it's almost like she's gasping for air but she's not. It's like she can't breathe out of either her mouth or her nose and I'm not sure which, I think it's her mouth because when she used to do it my boyfriend would put his fingers over her nose and she'd stop doing it but last night I tried that and it wouldn't work, I tried to get her to open her mouth and she wouldn't, I couldn't even pry it open. It was just weird because I had her under the covers but when I woke up she was on top of them so I don't know if she got too hot or what. I've gotta get her some PJ's asap. Is this a better description though?
