RSV in a 7 week old or younger
I’m going crazy over here, my toddler who is 18 months caught RSV from daycare and I have a 7 week old and I’ve been trying my best to separate them and clean everything we touch on a daily and she touches. I’m just so paranoid he’s gonna catch it😵💫 has anyones young baby caught it before? what are some symptoms you noticed first ? I know my toddlers first symptom was a cough and my 7 week old has been coughing more than usual the last two days but I’ve been checking his temp and making sure he’s breathing ok. It’s been a week now since my toddlers symptoms started so I know we are getting close to the end but I still want to make sure I know everything I’m supposed to look for . I’m honestly scared cause I know how dangerous it can be

My son got it at 4 months old and I found out because he had labored breathing and I rushed him to the hospital. He didn’t need to be admitted though, I just had to put him on breathing treatments through a nebulizer at home.
My baby got it at barely only 2 months old saline 2 drops in the nose every time for a feeding or going to bed , humidifier, the nose sucker , baby gripe water , and those cooling pads that go on the foreheads for kids really helped my little one and he got over it fast after that.
And also when you feel the cough is getting worse it can be a sign of the baby getting better don’t worry they can have a cough for awhile as long as the fever stays controlled and the nose stays clear mama 🙏🏼💛
