rsv

Avatar f tn One of my friends new born baby was diagnosed with rsv she is only a month old she is still in the hospital. And last night her 2 year old got bit by a dog. She was rushed to the er . She has to save surgery this morning if you can please say a prayer for this family.
Avatar n tn you also might want to ask your cardiologist or primary doctor about if your little one should recieve the synagis vaccine. this is to help lesson the effects of RSV (this is a viral infection) most kids can fight it off, if they are healthy to begin with. i am not sure if your little one would qualify. I wouldn't see why not. this infection from what I was toldif it affects newborns who are premmeis have a heart condition, lung issues and a low immune system.

Avatar f tn We have an 8 months old baby and I have been having friends come to visit and see the baby. My work colleagues came and later 2 friends and family. Here is the issue I have a lady who walked with me spirituality (I am a christian) and emotionally before we got married but my husband know her but i shared about her and she wants to come and visit us.
Avatar f tn RSV is more prevelant those months but can happen any month and is very dangerous for a newborn. My son had it at 2 weeks and being told about intubation, medovac and permenant lung damage is not worth it.
1347128 tn?1333810296 My 3 month baby had RSV when he was 6 weeks old, but since then, he has a phlegm sound, that is always there.
2006603 tn?1331329327 I will be having my baby soon, I am 38wks tomorrow and I was wondering when did you take your baby out for more than just a short shoppin trip or something? Me and my fiance are planning an outing for the first wednesday in august, we plan on going out to eat and maybe doin a little shopping at the mall and we want to take our lil man with us, he will be a few weeks old by then.
Avatar f tn How long are you going to wait to take your newborn out into the world?
Avatar f tn I take my babies where I have to go but avoid UNneeded trips or trips to show off baby. I don't let people visit baby for the first few months either because they don't care if there sick or been around sick people, all they want is to hold and breathe on baby.. germs is the last thing on a visitors mind but the first on mine.. you do not want a small baby that is sick having trouble breathing, throwing up and running a fever..
Avatar f tn From what I was told that if you baby wasn't premature or have a cardiac history then having RSV most likley is going to be mild. here is what you should loook for for worseing things, my son had it when he was 5 weeks old and he does have a cardiac issue so I hope your little one is healthy. look for bluish on the lops nail and nail bed. your little one really struggling to breathe if his nostrils are moving back and forth as well as him "sucking in " at his ribs.
Avatar n tn That baby needs to be evaluated by his pediatrician and not anyone here. Please get him some medical attention.
9536744 tn?1414122031 Since babies do not have sinuses like adults then can get rsv which when caught early is easy to handle. If caught later the baby can end up in the hospital. My daughter had it just after she turned 1and we just had to use a nebulizer, but it happened to a friend of mines newborn and he ended up in the hospital for a few days.
Avatar f tn my baby has RSV. I felt sick a little before we found out she had it and then a cople days later I got a cold do you think that could be it? and thank you.
1468158 tn?1363026295 My baby Dr. wants me to get the flu shot. I am suppose to have my baby in February, which for Oklahoma last year we had that big snow storm an got like 20inches or 4 ft of snow. Idk i can't remember. Ive never had it and i dont want it but im still considering whether i should or shouldnt take it. My dad took this shot when i was lil an got real sick from it the hospital told him if he hadn't of come in when he did he would have died.
Avatar f tn Is oxygen stats were 96 when they r normaly 100. the docs did a exam and a culture from his nose for RSV. after a few hours they had us go home and I was told to keep fluids in him and fever down. I got a call an hour later saying he has RVS but he will be fine. Sunday came and my son still had fever and was drinking but not a lot. He was still coughing and sneezing and he did have wheezing. he wnet to bed that night and never woke up he died some time in the early morning.
Avatar f tn Does baby cry a lot... that could be a reason his voice is hoarse or maybe he has some lungs on him...
1346146 tn?1299360497 Well Lauren has rsv! My pedi also said adults can get it to!?!? Didn't know that. I guess that explains this cold type stuff I have. So she is on breathing treatments. We caught it early enough so hopefully it wont be so bad. Dh is also sick, my oldest son broke his foot last week at school and is in a nonwalking cast, and Lauren also bit my left breast last week while nursing and it's infected so im on antibiotics and she can't nurse from that side!
Avatar f tn My 11 week has rsv .. He was full term .. Has any other mother had this in a infant ..
Avatar f tn Finally a few days ago i took him in again to the ER n they found out he has a virus newborns have been getting its Called Rsv n if they would have tested it before they would have found it i was So pissed!!! So now today we got out of the childerns hospital they sent him home with oxygen but to me he still seems bad but they that he was Fine!!
593530 tn?1263847957 I brought Brody to his pediatrician last week because he was very congested. After a nose swab was tested it was determined that he has RSV. Since it's a virus it can't be treated with antibiotics, so she instructed me to get a cool mist humidifier and keep his nasal pasages clear by using saline solution. The only symptom he's had is the congestion. There's no fever, coughing, mucous coming out, etc.
1368291 tn?1299629804 Saturday he was having lots of nasal congestion and coughing so I took him to the ER. He tested positive for RSV so the last few days have been scary. We are doing a cool mist humidifier with eucalyptus oil at night, albuterol breathing treatments and keeping his nose suctioned out. I hope he gets better soon but I did learn that apparently you cant trust family to let you know...
3054705 tn?1348415479 t know what state your in but the flu is bad in my area and its a different strain this year so family or not, a newborn getting the flu could be fatal, also rsv and whooping cough are around too. Most pediatricians don't recommend getting the baby out until around 2 to 6 weeks. I am not trying to scare you but you need to be aware of risks to you and to baby. I am sure people will say well i did this or that and things were fine BUT why take risks on things that are easily preventable.
Avatar f tn I just had my son at 33 weeks 6 days. If anyone on here has had preemies before my question is how long after you brought baby home did you stay in the house? I didn't get a definite answer from my doctor or the hospital. He is now almost 3 weeks and doing well just above 6 pounds. I've heard other moms say right away is okay another said one year!!! I have errands and appointments plus my 5 year old has to be taken and picked up from school during the week.
Avatar f tn if not then it might just be cold drs will worry if the baby develops a fever or bad cough.
Avatar f tn I'm in the er with my husband & daughter. She's 6 months & has a fever of 104.2. I don't know what's wrong, but Def am scared!! Such a high fever for a little baby. I'm waiting for the Dr now.
