Always pack the Xopenax when going for an overnight to your parents' house.  Pumpkin will develop a cough and there will not be anything for her in your suitcase or purse.  Oh, and get a bigger purse.  You need to carry the Epi-pens and the Xopenax with spacer.  They take up a lot of room.  You still need to have a big bag even if it's not filled with diapers.  Otherwise, you'll win a bad or at the very least, guiltiest, mom award.

    Aw, I hope she’s feeling better. I went away for a weekend and had to buy the inhaler and medicine for my older son. He doesn’t have daily asthma, but I did feel like a unprepared parent.
    I’m with you on the bag/purse. I need to find one now that I have transitioned out of the diaper bag. And I hate buying purses.

    Ugh! Brit had an asthma attack while spending the night at a friend’s house…at 2:30am! I felt terrible because they stayed up to wait for hubby to get to their house (20+ mins away and then for her to do her nebulizer treatment they insisted she stay if she was up to it). She rarely needs it, but of course that was the one day. sigh
