Just got back...

Croup is very scary for parent and child. DS has had it and had steroids and I hate to think what he would have been like without them as he was awful with them. Not hospitalised though. Hugs to you and you LO, hope you got a bit of sleep. I have been toying with buying a humidifier but they aren't cheap but anytime we get another bout I wish I had done.

Hope it's not as bad tonight, my son used to get this quite badly and it was scary. someone gave me a facial steamer for xmas one year and this came in quite useful, only time it gets used though.

This time next week it'll all be over - fingers crossed. x
