Common Questions and Answers about Rsv in the child care setting
rsv
The vaccine has been shown to be effective in preventing and/or reducing the severity of RSV infections and the number of hospitalizations each year.
Infants who are a product of multiple births, have lung disease, low birth weight, heart disease, and those born prematurely are at a higher risk to contract a serious form of Resipritory Syncytial Virus.
My son had rsv and the hospital kept him and thankfully we were released in a few hours because his breathing was better.its scary to do that at home, honestly they should of kept him he's only an infant ! Please contact a doctor I honestly don't think he should be home my son was two months old when he had it, and my husband ask if we can go home with him and they told us some pretty scary stuff .
The thing is he have been admitted , the doctor gave a breathing machine for home .. He seem to be doing fine but its only day four .. The cough and running nose it's as bad ..
My son is going to be 2 months old soon and a couple of days after he was born they told me he has RSV, i have been in and out of the hospital so many times and he dose not seem to be getting any better. I have read everybody stories and How they lost their loved ones and i am so scared that it might happen to my son. Please is there anything that i can do to prevent this from getting worse???
Other countries get alot more time off then we do in the usa. Im taking about 6weeks or so off. Then bc i don't want my child to be in daycare that young my moms gonna watch her and also my bf will be changing his work schedule some so that he can watch her the NIGHTS i have to work and then when i get out he will go to work. Also alot of childcare places will take a 6month old but its their minimum age. They will.
Sounds to me like your boyfriend is the one who's going to have to step up and take care of his child while you go to work - lots of places offer "mothers hours" of like 8 or 9AM to 3PM which would work opposite his schedule it sounds like. Babies that age still sleep a lot - if he needs to nap for a while when the baby does then that's fine.
Its always going to be hard to leave you child in daycare its up to you i would consider placing her at a daycare that you know people at you always can call and check up on your daughter i have a 3year old and i placed him in day care when he was 2year old my fiance and i would have different schedule i would work days and he would work nights it was all because we moved to a different state and didnt really have anyone to babysit now that im on my second child and my son is in daycare my daugh
This helps the child from getting ill, It sound like if your child did not get these shots he might be getting symptoms of RSV. Here are some I know of: having a simple clear runny nose and occasional cough that can be treated at home, to severe difficulty breathing that may require hospitalization. Other symptoms might include a low-grade fever, sore throat, headache, and irritability.
Hello all. Just checking if anyone here as beard of this virus? I went to my 18 wk sonogram yesterdayand told doc my 14 month old has rsv. A respitory virus and that now i have cold like symptoms and a rash on my face. She said i coukd have parvo and they drew blood to find out for sure but i don't have results yet. She says my baby can become anemic and can need a blood transfusion while in the womb. I am so terrified.
ve been reading your post and researching a bit to see if I can be of help, as your child sounds quite ill in his lower respiratory tract. The RSV can be a serious virus in young children. Were you told much about it? Did the pulmonologist (hopefully you're seeing a specialist!) explain why he/she thinks your son was having these difficulties? Usually a full term baby - even one with asthma doesn't have so many other respiratory disorders.
I have a four month old son who got RSV along with the whole household in early February. We live at altitude (7200) feet, but the baby did well--- one night of observation in the hospital, where his O2 sats were 96-97 when he was being held or was upright, but would fall when sleeping or laying down into the mid-80s. So, he went on oxygen.
Two months later he is still failing every overnight oxygen study in order to get him off nighttime oxygen.
We know that herpes can trigger inflammatory changes in the body. Already have some other things going on that perhaps hadn't gotten to the point yet where you notice them, the events in the body that can occur with a herpes infection, can sometimes set off all sorts of things. Medicine over the last several years has been putting more and more together about viral triggers of other illnesses.
he wnet to bed that night and never woke up he died some time in the early morning. He was a very healthy child and he should still be alive. i just got the cause of death and it was RSV and pneumonia that took him from his family. Should the doctors have done a chest x-ray and blood work? should they have kept him in hospital due to already having a heart condition? Please if anyone can help.
So I have a dilemma. My husband and I have a 13 month old son and we don't have any close by family or friends that can stay with him during delivery....anyone know hospital policy on young children in the delivery room? I can call my parents once I know I'm for sure in labor but they live 5-6 hours away and I truly don't want to have to labor/deliver alone while my husband stays with our son. Any advice??
He was okay to come home then he was 5 weeks old and got really ill with the RSV and was in the hospital and then heart failure then the surgery then infection and more illness. he does have pulmomary issues partly because my hubby has asthma and the ithers they are saying is from bing on a ventilator at such a young age.
Please make sure he gets the synagisis shot.(it helps lesson the rsv in a child with a heart issue and premature babies.
