[quote=Anonymous]My son (3 yrs old) had croup 9 times last year and has had it about four times this year so far. He gets it with every runny nose. It usually lasts 1-3 nights and he usually has a hard time breathing (stridor). Then has a regular cough and runny nose for a week or so more. Cold air seems to work the best. My little girl who just turned 1 has had it several times now as well but not quite as severe. Our pediatrician just prescribed a nebulizer with pulmicort but my son is terrified of it and gets so upset it makes things worse :(. Hoping they outgrow it soon! Those of you with older kids who seem to be outgrowing it did it seem to be less frequent as they got older?[/quote]
