SICK ADVICE: Ladies, help! My 5 month old son has been sick for 9 days (since Feb. 28). It started with a rough cough, runny nose and congestion/sneezing. We took him to his doctor, they told us he has bronchiolitis. They gave him a nebulizer treatment and we went home. They asked us to come in the following day for a follow up and he was worse, yet they said his lungs sound clear. Another treatment and home.
He didn't have a high temperature, 99.7 this past Thursday and began projectile vomiting 4x in one hour (10pm) and had only eaten 16 oz. for the day (way less than normal). Now he is vomiting straight phlegm. He's still congested, and still has a disgusting cough. He is eating better though.
What would y'all do? Back to the doctor tomorrow and if no difference bring him to the ER? I'm thinking it's more than bronchiolitis.
❤️❤️ Thank you!
your welcome and never care about what others think do what you think is best for your baby ❤☺
Your welcome let us know how hes doing please. ❤️ and remember no one knows your baby better than you do. So if you feel something is wrong, go with ur gut ! Good luck ! ❤️
Thank you. I'm going to take him. As a first time mom I wanted to make sure I wasn't over analyzing what they diagnosed. But as I'm learning- it's never over the top when it comes to your baby. I stopped feeling bad calling 5+ times after hours to his doctor on call after the second time. Thank you ladies! 💗@cierra216 @linnychicken199
I'd take him to the er and your gonna have to demand test on him I has to do it with my friends baby and they were just gonna give him a breathing treatment and send him home until I told them to test him and we find out he has sma so funny leave until you feel like you got all your answers
Id personally take him to a children's hospital. I Hope hes alright ! 💕
What's wrong with my kids?
My 6 month old cries constantly. He has a horrible cough and his chest is so congested. I've taken him to the doctor multiple times, 3 times in one week! He never sleeps. He acts hungry but fights me when I try to feed him. My two year old was never sick so this is pretty much my first time dealing with anything like this.
My two year old is just as congested, has a runny nose, really bad cough, blistered lips, and poor appetite. He gets fevers at night (101.7 this ti...
Sorry for the TMI, this goes with my previous post, but is this more vomiting than normal spitting up? This is why i think he has reflux. He does this at least 1-2 times a day. He gags, coughs, then a fountain of formula comes out. The only weird part is he isn't upset, he acts like nothing happened. Any advice for me at his Drs? I don't want it to seem like I'm overreacting.
So Dr has sent me in to do labs because I mentioned to him how itchy I’ve been these last couple of days. Any other moms gone through this before? He mentioned if something came up in my blood we’d have to do my section sooner than what it is scheduled for.
Yesterday my boyfriend said he vomited 3 times yesterday and he been having cravings and sleeping more than usual and today he said he is having back pain is that a sign of me being pregnant?
Oh I feel for you! Every thing you described I just went through with my son. I took him to 3 different ERs to just be sent home. I know it's hard and you don't sleep every time you hear him cough it's scary but I'd suggest what children's hospital told me. When the baby sleeps let him/her sleep elevated, they said a car seat but I didn't like that so I used his bouncer, that'll keep the mucus down and out of his nose, a shower steam treatment before the nebulizer and feed him while he is at a 90 degree angle and cut his amount of food in half bc of the virus the baby's belly can't process it all since it is in defense mode. Unfortunately you just have to let it runs its course, I will tell you though you are near the end! It gets worse before getting better. It lasted about 14 days with my son. He still is slightly congested but at least the rest is over. I'll be thinking of you I know what you're going through, it's tough. Hang in there mommy.
