Older kids just get that croupy cough, but when babies get it, their throats swell and makes for some mighty scary moments!<BR/><BR/>I can't tell you how many times I've had to sit on the front porch at 2 a.m. with a sick baby on my lap wrapped in blankets. Or headed out to the ER only to have them sleeping peacefully by the time we got there. Cold night air is the best fix, but it's still scary and for one as little as Henry the ER was a good move. I hope he's better in no time!Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00747308009364094199noreply@blogger.com
