Answer 2

My son had it when he was about 6 months old. It's called respiratory sinsisual(?) virus. I think it's common during flu season. It's most prominent in very young babies, though older children can get it as well, they just aren't effected by it as much. My son started turning bluish around his mouth. He made alot of noise when he breathed and he had a high fever. He was admitted to the hospital and quarentined. He spent a few days in an oxygen tent and got regular breathing treatments. He also had an antibiotic but I think that was because his ears were infected rather than because of the RSV. I think that kids who get it are more prone to things like allergies and asthma when they get older. My son hasn't had any problems like that since then. He's 2 1/2 now.

Answer 3

My son and daughter were both preemies and have been hospitalized before with RSV. My son started out having a simple clear runny nose and occasional cough that I thought I could treat at home. After a couple of days it continued to get worst, He started wheezing and having difficulties in breathing. After a mouth swab at the local hospital they diagnosed him with RSV and hospitalized him for almost two weeks. This is very serious and has been known to cause death in babies.
