Rsv, can someone help?
I need so advice or some experience. My daughter is 11 1/2 months old. Last monday or tues i took her to the dr and he said she has rsv. All he said to do was to watch her for if she ever has trouble breathing to take her to childrens hospital. He said to use a bulb sucker to try helping her but nothing is within reach of me doing that. She has had this nasty cough for about a week or a little longer. We havent taken her to children hospital cuz she hasnt really struggled to breath (make us tired watching her breath is how dr described it ). She still acts pretty normal and she drools alot, which are 2 other things he said to watch for. But, she coughs a lot. During the day she coughs quite a bit and sometime she throws up from coughing so much. At night, its much worse. She coughs so much she ends up throwing up (more than during the day). We have to go over to her and pick her up to try helping her. But that doesnt help a lot, she still coughs. I have tried using baby vicks on her chest, reg vicks on her feet, ive tried a humidifier, but nothing is helping her. She has also started having a runny nose. I dont know if i should take her up to childrens hospital to see if they can do anything or just take her back to dr on mon. Last week was all messed up with holiday or i would have taken her back last week. I just wish i could make her stop coughing. She cries whe/ she coughs so much. She is keeping me up everynight. Can anyone give me advice? Please. Im sorry its so long but my other 2 never had rsv.
