Sick, Worried Posted: 12-15-07 10:35am
I have the crude and so does my four year
old. We can't breathe very well, our nose
are runny and it's going down to our
chests.
I am very worried for Brian, especially
because of his rough start in life and his
underdeveloped lungs at that time. He is
not sick yet.
I just hope that since I am breastfeeding,
he doesn't get sick! I stopped
breastfeeding Nathan at 10 weeks and about
a month later he came down with RSV. Not
saying he wouldn't have if I didn't
breastfeed but who really knows. Nathan
was sick of and on for about the next two
years.
Anyone get really sick while they had
infants? What in the heck did you do? I
have no choice but to expose him. He has
already been exposed to me. I was thinking
of getting a face mask today but would it
really matter since I have exposed him?
Will it really help? Sorry..such stupid
questions but I just don't know and am
worried. I CAN'T have Brian sick. This
cough hurts.

You have given Brian a good start by
breastfeeding. Lets hope that is enough
immunity.
Hope you feel better

I'm sorry to hear that. I hope he doesn't
get it either. My daughter has a nasty
cough, and i'm trying to keep her away
from sophie. She thinks i'm doing it to be
mean, but i'm not. Get well soon!

i was told not to breastfeed when you are
sick but to pump it and bottle feed it so
you arent as close in contact but i guess
you dont have anyone who can care for him
so you dont have to hold him to close or
anything. I guess just try not to breathe
on him and wash your hands like a nut

My husband can bottle feed. That's an
idea. I will try that.
I am also trying to keep Nate away from
Brian...it's so TOUGH!!!
