croup..

How can i help them feel better sooner? Their first Birthday party is in 8 days!!! I have the Cool mist going and Motrin when they have fevers and robitussin..

I sure hope they get better in a few days!

It feels like they have been sick for 8 out of the 12 months they have been alive.. UUGGHH

 

If it's truly croup, you need some medicine and they'll get better REALLY fast!! :hug99:

I took DS to the ER the other night and they gave him a steroid shot and said that it was such an early stage in croup that they didnt want to give him meds.. and now DD is doing the same thing.. She just doesnt have the barking cough yet..

 

I do hope they feel better ASAP. May this next year be a healthier one!

 

:hug99: i have no advice, i just hope they get better!

 

We haven't had croup so I have no advice, but I hope they feel better soon and definitely in time for their birthday party. :hug99:

 

I hope they feel better FAST!! :hug99:

 

UGH! Mine get that a lot, it sucks. If one got steroids already they should be feeling better in a day or two. The other one might not get the full blown course of croup. So sorry, hope they heal fast!

Ugh! So sorry. :hug99: I kwym about being sick so much of their lives. It seems like we've lived from one sniffle to the next cough to the following stomach bug. Yuck! We all have a cough right now. I'm the only one on meds.

I hope your babies feel better soon. We did do the nebulizers when they were bad. We would also take them in the bathroom and run a hot shower and give them a good warm steam.

 

Oh, I hope they feel better soon! Most bugs don't last much over 7 days, so you should be safe for their party in 8 days. They may not feel 100%, but they shouldn't be at the peak of the worst part of it. That being said, mine were coming down with Hand, Foot, & Mouth at their party...high fevers & fussy. It sucked. And Conner had a diaper rash that looked like someone took a blow torch to his behind! But, they still had fun, so even if yours aren't 100%, hopefully the party will cheer them up & they'll enjoy it anyways!

Get well wishes are being sent your way.......
