Girls just looking for any mums who have had experience with this?
My lo is 18 months and has had and currently still going through croup twice! Both resulting in hospitalization. The first was by far the worst. We were rushed into a&e by ambulance and he was put to sleep and a tube was inserted down his throat he was transferred to our sick kids hospital and he was in a coma for 5 days!! Very scary and traumatising for us then yesterday he was displaying the same symptoms but we took him to a&e ourselves and he was given steroids, paracetamol and that mask thing ( can't recall it's name. As he's older he coped better but we stayed overnight and we got home today but have to go back to hospital to stay tonight for observations!
It's just horrible and I don't know why he suffers so bad. Anybody else have experience with this? X
