    My whoop is at the beginning when im preparing for the cough? And the cough sounds a bit like a dog barking?

    Dont know if I should get a second opinion or not.

    I did already take antibiotics but I seriously do not want to infect anyone

    I delivered at NECH 2 1/2 weeks ago..... we seem to have been lucky to escape it, espeically as I saw two OB's and DD2 two Paed's. And since I left it has been running at capacity, there were only 7 of us there when I was first admitted.

    SA experienced it's first Whooping Cough death in 9 years only recently as well
