My LO has what??

[gazelle86]

My 2 year old had a fever on and off for about 4 days along with a cough and runny nose. Well I thought here we go with one of those nasty colds and I here's no point of taking him to the doctor to just be sent home.. Well after 5 days nothing was improving, so I decided to take him to see the doc. Low and behold my LO has Pneumonia!! Poor thing he has such a nasty cough that you can hear the pain. He was put on amoxicillin and given an inhaler to breathe, but will have the cough for another 2 weeks! So scary, I was up all night checking on him making sure he was still breathing. Pray he gets better soon!! Hopefully none of your LO come down with anything. I hear it's going around.

Oh my gosh! Poor little dear! I hope LO gets better fast, that can't be easy to watch

[chiwifey]

Poor little one! Hope he's all better soon!

[leahb12]

Poor baby and mama! It's scary! DS1 had pneumonia about 1.5 years ago. It can escalate so quickly. I hope he feels better ASAP!

Oh no! I hope he is feeling better soon.  Those meds should start to make a big difference in 48 hours.

Poor guy, I hope he is better soon!

[aurora1181]

Oh no! My twins are still getting over RSV after a six day hospital stay. I hate hate hate it when little ones are sick. Hope yours gets better soon!

[bellalou]

Poor lil buddy. How's he feeling? Any better? We've been sick. I decided to take myself and I have ear infection. So, decided to take P next day....double ear infection. Our momma instincts are like no other. Good thing you took him!

[gazelle86]

bellalou thanks for checking up! He's doing much better. He Still has a nasty cough that he will have for another week or so.

How did they determine pneumonia? My LO has had a yucky cough and fever and when I went to doc they just said virus. She's a mess and i feel like crap too.

They listened to his breathing and could hear wheezing and also when he was coughing. Plus fever on and off for 5 days.

Thanks. Today is day 5 of fever. I will call dr tomorrow.
