EscortNreg Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 My 5 month old has broncitus (or however you spell it) and my son has really grren snot, a tale tale sign of chicken pox... So all is not good at home, I hate seeing them ill, even though my lil girl is still really smiley and laughing loads, its just not nice to hear her coughing and strugeling to breath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiamGTR Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 Pah! It's only chicken pox you're doing them good by giving them it early when later in life they won't even remember having! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee_2f2f Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 (edited) It's not just chicken pox though Liam, its what you can get with it, for young children it is common for their asophogus to become tight, which makes them struggle with breathing (obviously very dangerous) & also as people have said, causes violent coughing resulting in vomiting. So I can see where these Dad's are coming from, its not nice watching your child sit there struggling to breath. Really feel for them.

MarkyMark Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 Give them plenty of Ribena, sure that stuff has some sort of medication in it. Seems to sort my kids out whe they are poorly plus its the only time they will drink it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutchkev Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 Our are living on squash atm, can't get them to drink water but they are not allowed fizzy drinks! They're startingto scan up now which is even worse for them as they're itching even more that when the spots first broke out, plus there is already scaring on my sons face from some of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
