Hey there girls!!

Kim I'm sorry to hear that Craig were bad, its great to see that you guys are working on resolving things. I don't know how I would cope with all of what is going on with you two & having an 8mth old & being pregnant. *hugs*

Us... well Jovie had a bout of croup this morning Its so awful. She woke up okay and was snotty and a bit chesty... but nothing much. DH had her up so I could sleep & I woke up & could hear this horrible wheezing sound. I came out of the bed room & she was coughing which sounded like a dog barking & wheezing. So I jumped into the shower with her to help settle it down, she fed and was happy but making a horrible sound so we went to the GP. By the time we were seen it settled more, and he said that it sounded like croup. To be honest it wasn't as bad as when Matilda had it. When Matilda had it, it sounded as though she couldn't breath at all & was gasping for breath... horrible.

Its awful croup. There isn't anything you can do for it but have some steroids in your fridge ready to go. Tonight she got wheezy again so we put on the vapouriser & gave her the steroids before bed. I know I'm not suppose to pre-empt croup, but I don't think I could go through it again.
