    that would have been so scary, hope she's feeling better now. DD9 is growing out of her asthma, as a baby she was in hospital 3 times and had it quite bad until she was about 5. Now she really only gets it in Winter if she gets a cold or sometimes when playing sport.

    Regards,

    DD was diagnosed at around 18 months. She's now 5 and hasn't needed any medication or had an attack in over 12 months.

    It's very scary when they have first attack

    My two DSs, now 7 and 5, both have moderate to severe asthma. My youngest DS was diagnosed at four months old... We end up in the hospital at least three times a year with asthma attacks. My youngest DS was on Redipred just this week.

    I'm also asthmatic, and I'm in my (cough) thirties... I still regularly take ventolin and a preventer.
