Babies: 9 - 12 Months

Symptoms

So LO has had cold symptoms for four weeks now.  She goes to daycare so I wasn't necessarily not expecting it.  She had RSV in November.  We took her to the doctor last Friday and he said that RSV symptoms (wheezing/cough/stuffy nose) can reoccur for several months.  He said that babies her age absolutely can't have seasonal allergies.  However 3 babies in her infant room at dc are on zyrtec for allergies.

 

At the beginning of the symptoms she ran a fever off and on and the doctor ended up putting her on antibiotics for a slight ear infection.  Now she's had a fever off and on for the last week (anywhere from 99.7-101).  She's also getting her first tooth.

Her temp is 99.7 tonight which really isn't a fever per say, but I'm just wondering if I should try talking to the doctor again.  I feel like he just brushed it off as RSV symptom reoccurrence, but she shouldn't get a fever with that.

Re: Symptoms

  • Ugh I hate when Drs. do that. I think if its bugging you and your gut says she needs to be looked over again, I wouldn't hesitate to take her back in. Better just to be sure.

  • When our LO cuts a tooth he gets the same symptoms as a cold- runny nose, fever, cough even, chapped cheeks. He will be running a slight fever for a week.

    You know your baby though- if something isn't right then bring your LO back in. GL!<br
