    oh this past week has been rough around here!!! Both babies have been so sick!! they were a little better yesterday but now Addison's cough sounds more junky than the barky croupy cough she has had - I
    may need to take her back to the dr. - she is on Omnicef and Prednisone. when my boys were little and had the croup - it was worse at night Addison has been worse during the day -and I never remember a croupy cough turning into a junky bronchitis sounding cough does anyone have experience with croup?

    Aye, me oldest lad had Croup. I had to take him in the bathroom and turn on a hot shower so he could breathe th' steam. It helped him immensely. I hope your little ones get well smart-like and are ship-shape and ready t' sail soon enough!

    No advice (so far we've only dealt with colds, fever with a rash, and an ear infection), but I wanted to send you and your little ladies some :hug99: :hug99: :hug99:

    Hope they feel better soon! -Leighann

    Heather, croup is a barky cough, almost always worse at night. I don't remember though if it turns into a junky one as they start getting better or not...I am thinking not. Poor punkins. I hope they feel better soon. :hug99:

    thank you all!! today has been better! her cough is still junky sounding but not as often - they are both super clingy now - but I think they at least feel a little better!
