Ok this is getting so old. I took Ryan in yesterday to the doctor because he has this cough that will not go away, no matter what we have tried so I asked to have some chest x-rays done, and my awesome doctor said he would do whatever I wanted because I am the mom, and if I think there is something wrong then it needs to be addressed.
So he gave me a paper and I took it to the imaging center, waited 2 hours with 2 boys, through lunch time and everything (luke was the best he has ever been!) to get 2 x-rays and then waited a couple of hours for the images and the radioligist report to get to my doctor. So when he did call me, he told me that this is the exact reason he listens to moms when they say something is wrong with their kids.....Ryan has RSV.
Have I ever mentioned that I absolutely LOVE my doctor? When Luke was 4 weeks old he had RSV and we spent some time in the hospital, but before that he had given me every phone number he had, pager, home....everything, and I called him so many times and he was so nice about it and he even made a house call, had me come to his house, (when caleb was sick too) and he called several times over the weekend to see how things were going. Sweetest doctor a mom could ask for.
Anyway, so now we are dealing with this too....how fun. but it is really weird because he has never ran a fever, or acted sick other than the cough! So I don't know what to think.....its all just puzzleing to me.

A great doctor makes all the difference in the world!! I love my OBGYN, but have not yet found a pediatrician that I absolutely love. I am glad that you now know what is wrong so that he can get better. Good luck!
