Guest guest Posted January 23, 2004 Report Share Posted January 23, 2004 , It is so scary to have a baby with breathing problems. I know what you went through first hand. My son was in the hospital for 3 days in November due to pneumonia. They also dx'd him with Reactive Airway disease. He was on Oraped, Albuterol breathing treatments, and 2 antibiotics as well. We have not had any serious relapses through this cold and flu season, just one " cold " that had me terrified. I am sure that it was not RSV for Ellen, because that is usually very serious and they almost always pop those babies in the hospital, just to make sure that they are OK. Aidan was in isolation before they ruled out RSV. YUCK! Best of luck! > Ellen had her first adjustment Mon., and there has been no more > trouble with red spots! We did have trouble with breathing!!

Guest guest Posted January 23, 2004 Report Share Posted January 23, 2004 , How scary! I'm happy to hear Ellen is feeling better and breathing better. Asthma is so scary, 2 of my kids have it and they think my youngest may have it too. My 7 yo, 2.5 yo and my 9 month old all get breathing treatments. I only have to do them when they are sick. How is Ellen feeling today? It's great to hear that an adjustment did the trick. Keep us posted on her progress. I hope she's feeling better soon. -- In Plagiocephaly , " elizabeth_jury " <elizabethjury@c...> wrote: > Ellen had her first adjustment Mon., and there has been no more > trouble with red spots!
