Friendly reminder not to let ANYONE kiss your newborns . Ladies it is that serious. My kids got sick and I had no idea they had rsv because they’re older and it presents itself as a cold. I have a 2 year old who absolutely loves her brother and I tried really hard to keep her away from him but if you have kids you know that’s not easy!

Well, my 7 week old caught what I thought was a cold now here we are in pediatric ICU on a ventilator!

Nurses are saying strip your clothes when you come home and have your school age children do the same and shower before they do anything at home & SANITIZE SANITIZE SANITIZE !

Also ! If you’re wondering when it’s time to take your baby in , they told me somthing called the stop light rule !

If baby is retracting or (breathing hard) in the tummy you’re in the green ; if you start to move up to the chest cavity toward the ribs ; your yellow it’s probably time to be seen !

And when we are up in the chest and head area YOU ARE IN THE RED GO NOW !

That means your baby is all closed up all the way down and can’t push air on their own !

Also keep an eye out for head bobbing with breaths

If anyone would like updates on baby Frankie

I’ll be posting on tiktok as it’s easier than typing everything out
