Thanks everyone for thinking of us and I can't tell you how happy I am that I had the swab taken. Like the GP said, most people don't even get tested for WC until the cough comes. I just can't stand that I have to wait and watch him for 3 weeks just waiting....waiting...for it to get him.

Bug's Mum - I'm not sure where he picked it up but there has been an outbreak of WC in our town recently and also I have a family member who was around him and she had a terrible cough but I don't like to say for sure. Either way he was somehow in the vicinity of someone who had it to catch it.

I'm just sick with worry about if he gets the cough and how bad to expect it to be.
