My little one went through the same thing. Broke my heart when she started when she would pitch fit while I was putting that mask on her.

Yeah, screw that mask. I'm doing a blow-by with a mouthpiece. He does well with that. I turned it into a game. I met him help me put it together. The nebulizer looks like a cow and the case is a barn. That helps alot.

What did your girl have?

The ones they use at the hospital where I work are the kinds you wrap you lips around so there is less leakage. Would think they'd be better than the mask. Jmo

It was 6 years ago so I don't remember exactly. She just couldn't stay asleep due to waking herself up in coughing fits. It sounds very similar to what you have described. I hate that I can't remember all of the details. But the treatments helped a great deal and she does not show any signs of asthma or any other respiratory issues to this point. She was less than a year old when all this came about.

She was just at the age to where I had to hold her down and it hurt my heart to have to do that.

Rsv is much worse in kids than adults

No doubt. My son will be 2 on the 25th and my little girl is 4. I was terrified that I would have two very sick kids. She hasn't had any symptoms and if she did they would likely only be cold-like.

My wife is a nurse. She cared for a patient who was swabbed-positive for RSV while my wife was 8 months pregnant. Terrifying ordeal.

Well if you get the time check it out. But watch from the very beginning. It is one of those shows that you need to pay attention or yu will miss something vital to the rest of the show. Well worth watchng, but it takes some time as it is 5 seasons long.

I'm glad that phased-out. Sick babies will break a dude down.

Unfortunately I don't have time to watch all that. With work, school and the gf my time is limited.

Fortunately besides those breathing treatments and an occasional fever that would scare the hell out of me, she has been a very healthy kid. ER visits are never fun. Hope your fam gets better.

I never watched an episode of Lost while it was on TV. I borrowed the entire box-set last year and watched all 7 season over a 4 month period.

Lost almost cost me a divorce after it was cancelled...:)

I never tried to watch that series. I guess it was because I didn't want to start in the middle of it. I finally broke down and watched the Sopranos from start to finish last year and enjoyed it very much. It takes some dedication for sure. :)

looks like a good series, but my cable bill isenough as it is with all the sports channels. I will have to check it out on blu ray when it comes out, if it has not already.
