My 2yr old son has the croup and I am really worried that my 4 wk old daughter will get it, any suggestions on how to prevent. I am so scared what should I do?

yes, she definately can. the best thing to do is wash everybodys hands (to include the 4 wk old) a lot throughout the day. and try to keep the 2 yr old away from the 4 wk old as much as possible, obviously you wont be able to keep them away from each other all day, but as much as you can.

i say get your daughter out the house now! She's too young. Her immune system hasn't been developed all that well yet! Either your son leaveand stay with another member of the family or you stay with someone else with your newborn!

yes but if your son is on antibiotics it should be alright just don't ;let him kiss or touch her.
