You informed us in such a comforting way. Thank you so much from a mama who gets anxiety when her littles are sick.
Thank you so much!
Your video is packed with very helpful information. Watching this video will help me reduce fear and help my baby better.
Amazing work! Wonderful
One of the most thorough explanation!!!
Thank you so much!!
Such a knowledge video for a parents
Thank you. Very useful and helpful information. Blessings
Thank you for this video ,this was needed ,this is the first time my almost 3 year old twins has EVER catched a Cold that resulted in a blocked nose and a very phlegmy cough so this mama is up morning hours searching for assurance that they are fine even thought their pediatrician is certain its just a bad case of the flu since my partner has the flu too
Thank you for making this video
Youre so welcome!
Amazing video! Thanks 👍
Youre so welcome
Thanks as always, Dr. Mona! I’ve found your content so helpful ❤️
Thank you Abbey!
Excellent video!!!
Happy it was helpful!
Thank you for this video! My toddler went to bed wheezing and I watched this video in case she was worse the next morning. She woke up with the chest heaving, I could see her chest pulling at her notch, and she had the nose flaring. We ended up in the ER because her pediatrician didn’t have any immediate openings. Ended up having Bronchiolitis. Thank you for the great content ❤
Im so sorry your little one is not feeling great but very grateful this video was helpful!
Thank you, for giving me some ease as my grandbaby has been diagnosed with RSV.
Wishing her so much healing and you all some support. Having a sick kiddo is never easy
Great video, very informative - thanks! Our daughter is almost 3 and has had RSV 2 times before. Both times she got very sick and ended up with respiratory distress. We’re hoping that this time around her airways has matured. As per the paediatrics last time we were admitted, we have started her on flixotide and ventolin, hoping this will also alleviate what’s to come. We’re only day 2, so are praying that it’s more manageable this time around!
Did she see a doctor and get a diagnosis? I ask as a fellow parent and I'm curious if my son has had it, I didn't take him to the doctor
@@sabrinaandbenji1390 hi there! Yes, RSV can be detected on a PCR test.
Is your daughter vaccinated ? Like childhood vaccines
Thank you for these informative videos. Watching this at 3:00 am while holding my newborn who is going through rough cough and cold.
Aw so glad you’ve found it helpful. Messages like these encourage me to keep making content! Hope your little one feels better soon ❤️
Thank you
This was very informational since my baby boy of 6months has RSV
Hope your babe feels better soon!
My grandson is 9 months, and he is gasping sometimes when he comes to my house, I told my daughter to check with the Doctor, and they told her is normal for babies and he will grew up from that.
Thank you so much Dr Mona for this informative video on RSV. It covers so much and pitched just right. It’s reassuring and practical.
Aw I’m so glad! Thanks for the kind words ❤️❤️
This was very thorough, thank you.
I appreciate that you mentioned not being tested for rsv doesn't mean that the provider isn't doing a thorough job, but that it's more for hospital staffing to be aware. Of who has what
Exactly and knowing it's RSV often doesn't change the recommended treatment especially in the outpatient setting
Thank you for this video, it explains very well. I’m watching this at 5am in the hospital isolation room with my 3w2d newborn who is RSV positive and now fighting the bronchiolitis.
Aw I'm so sorry your little one is sick. RSV can be so hard on little ones. Sending you hugs, I hope your baby feels better soon!! Glad the video was helpful ❤
We thought our baby swallowed something and we went to the er cause he sounded weezy but they said nothing was in his throat lungs or stomach. He has the weez you did but no cough no sneezing the sternum thing happens sometimes but not the lungs. But it has been day one. He is 7months. And no fever.
Hello, I found this video (and others here) incredibly useful and have just subscribed to your channel. Could you please make a video explaining the differences between viral wheezing and asthma? This would be extremely helpful. Thank you so much! X
Great suggestion! WIll 100% put that on the queue!
My daughter is day 4 and started coughing. Her nose is red and flared up. What do I do.
My grand daughter is coughing persistent now and she does have a cold, not her active little self she won't eat but wants something to drink and she feels very warm.
Very informative. Thank you for this wonderful explanation
My dd is 22 months and has had a cough for 2 months. Her DC keeps saying she has sinusitis I don't think that's it
Thanks alot for this infor. My 16month is having the symptoms right now.😢 On my way to the clinic
Aw I'm sorry they are sick. I hope they feel better soon ❤
Thank you! My two year old daughter has a habit of putting things in her mouth. She just developed a dry cough, slight fever and is having difficulty breathing.
If seeing signs of difficulty breathing it's best to see a clinician about next steps. Poor thing, I hope she feels better soon! 🙏❤
What a amazing channel ❤️ 👏 💖 you just got anew subscribers 😀 👏 🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️🙋🏽♀️

Doctors keep saying that adults aren't as Impacted by RSV which is so misleading. I ended up in the hospital and needed a rescue inhaler with RSV.
When can i wash the head of my rsv infected baby?
I'm an adult that was born with a congenital heart defect in 1992 & had open heart surgery and shortly after got RSV. Now I'm 30 years old and a month ago I got pnemonia, RSV, costochondritis, bronchiolitis and almost died. I was treated with antibiotics for the pneumonia & had another scan to find all of that. What can an adult like me do at home?
How are you feeling now? RSV is so debilitating. I feel like kts affected us more than covid.
At minimum, D3, 10k I. U.
I am starting to do better now. Way better. I started vitamin D 5k IU and I am feeling the best I probably can feel for the first time in a year. I was able to start a mini exercise regimen and my husband came down with influenza type B a few weeks ago and I did not end up with it somehow. I am very excited but also trying to play it cool because I have been in bad positions before with viruses. Keeping my fingers crossed for a safe winter ahead. Thank you for asking.This was the second time in my life of ever having RSV. I recovered at home but had a lot of clinic and hospital visits in between and tons of bed rest and self pacing. It was the most depressing 8 months of my life. I thank god every day that I wake up now.
@@auntb4573 Ok, increase to 10k, and try at night for improved sleep.... Don't be alarmed with potentially increased dreaming. Eliminate sugar from diet. Study gut biome health.
@@MarkShinnick I have to get another blood test soon to make sure my vitamin d is going up and if my doctor agrees maybe I'd try 10 in the future
I have COPD and I got diagnosed with RSV. I got taken to the hospital with a COPD exacerbation. Now my wife has it and she coughing severely. I have tried just about everything and it is getting worse.
I’m so sorry to hear that! I hope you and your wife are feeling better ❤️
What if my baby only has the high pitched wheez when she’s crying?
I took her to the doctor and it’s day 2, but he said bring her back if I hear that. We literally just got back home from the doctors office.
Same here
Pls let me know what it was for ur baby
Hope she is doing well and good now
2022 here , Covid has taken a back seat to RSV lol
Why is no one saying that this is what used to be called croup , treatment was to take baby outside to breath cold air than to a steamy bathroom just wondering ?
Croup is a different symptom than bronchiolitis. All can be caused by viruses but steamy bathrooms don't always help with bronchiolitis (and sometimes doesnt even help croup). I have a separate croup video
I think my toddler has rsv for the third time and this time round he only had a mild cough and a fever which has been up and down for 2 days now.
Yes you can get it multiple times, glad it sounds like this course has been more mild though. Hope he feels better soon! ❤️
This may seem dumb but if you do have to take your child to the ER- do you go to a regular/closest ER or would you go to the childrens hospital? I live in Austin so ours would be Dell Childrens but there are ERs closer to our home…
As an adult ER doctor in a non children’s hospital I can say that for most routine issues..going to a regular ER is completely fine…we have all been trained to manage pediatric emergencies and we typically are comfortable managing RSV and bronchiolitis…that being said if your child requires a more in depth evaluation based off our exam, we may need to transfer to a children’s hospital that is better equipped to manage more complicated patients…when in doubt it is always prudent to go to your nearest ER to avoid any delays in care.
I agree with hubs that closest ER in a true emergency is best (difficulty breathing for example that is severe). If it's more of using the ER as an urgent care type need since office is closed, you can go to children's hospital.
Thank you!! Love y’all!! Two of my fav Insta/RUclips docs!!
@@rachelwilley173 Thanks Rachel!
Should I take baby to hospital? They sent us home 2 days ago but her fever does not go down 🥺
Fever is good. Things better now?
Hello Doc,
My daughter is 5 yr old she was in ER she got 2 different virus. Para influenza and adreno virus. She had fever for 7 strait days. Now currently she having lot of cough Doctor said use inhaler. Any other thing we could help her to stop cough ? How is it possible to 2 different virus at same time. Love to hear your thoughts.
Thank you Doc.
She n my thoughts and prayers
@@ginnahcrews6546 Thanks for the prayers.
@@Berdez1083 Thanks for asking she is doing fine w/ grace of God.
@@thomas9469 that’s so good to know! Thanks for replying!
Probably from food, air, or contact from someone close or sharing food/drinks
Thanks alot for this detailed vedio my son was hospital because of Rsv in Feb but still its been a 1.5 month he is still having cough and cold... how long it will take to completely cure....please guide
How is he doing now? We too are struggling to recover from rvs been sick for a month now.
@Xochilt Jimenez same here to my almost 2month old is struggling with mucus and coughing trying to clear its throat and its been a month already... makes me wonder how long befor all this gose away...
How long do RSV fevers usually last in toddlers ?
Usually around 2-3 days, rarely up to 4 days
My 6 mo old baby has rsv and the doctor just said give her pedialite she can keep 1 tsp down .
I had covid 19 while pregnant w her so she is already compromised. She doesn't have a fever but I worry about dehydration
How long does RSV usually last

My baby is 8 days old and she has mild intercostal retractions and flared nostrils, but doesn't have cough and fever. Nobody would take me seriously. Even medical workers. I don't know what to do.
How is she now
@@saymamanik4151 thank God, she is doing well 🙏
So happy to hear… what measures did u take to cure her
@@saymamanik4151 are you going through something similar? I think I was a nervous wreck back which caused hypervigilance. Everything just resolved on it's own, as everyone was telling me. I was breastfeeding my baby whenever she was crying, I think it helped, too. I hope your baby is going to be perfectly healthy soon 🙏❤️
God’s great. Yes.. my baby had the same issue and nobody took me seriously. Right now he is 2 month… he seem fine but he coughs occasionally and theres some sound we hear while he breath.. soo confused
My baby has this now.
I'm sorry your baby is sick! I hope this video was helpful and they are feeling better!
My baby has no fever but has mucus between throught and nose what is the problem
many viral illnesses cause congestion and post nasal drip but no fever. check out my cough and cold remedies RUclips video for tips on how to treat symptoms at home. hope she feels better soon!
My son is currently in hospital with this thing. He’s on oxygen. UV drip still struggling to breathe. Don’t ever be scared to call the ambulance as a parent. This thing kind of was a bit strange because minute my son looked okay and then Next he was struggling to breathe then he’ll come down again so it was a kind ofdiscussion to have to call the ambulance but so much better to just call the ambulance and get them into hospital if we didn’t get him into the ambulance yesterday night he probably would’ve been dead this morning
Aw I'm so sorry he's so sick. But yes a great point, never be scared to call 911 for a breathing concern! I hope he has a quick recovery ❤
Can the baby have rsv if there not coughing or have a fever but you see a little rib breathing
Good question! It is possible to have RSV without a cough or fever but most babies will have some associated viral symptoms, like runny nose, sneezing, cough, decreased appetite or congestion
Can this disease go away
What can I say? Feeling how the blisters on my torso began to shrink within 3 days was very soothing, I applied what I talked about the other day and in two weeks the pain was gone. I just go’ogled Kaena Ramingler’s Shingles Solution and now I feel as smooth and relaxed as I've ever been.
You never said reduce the amount of milk products
Yeah that's very important!!
@@ramip8816 why can’t they take milk?
@@alondrao57 It creates more mucus production
What about milk alternatives like almond milk?
This is an old wives tale.
Mom or father
Okay?
