DS2 was diagnosed with bronchiolitis over the weekend and we spent 24 hrs in hospital. When we were discharged Sunday night they gave me an inhaler for him (Ventolin) and said the cough would continue for up to 2 weeks. How long should the wheezing last though? He's still wheezing although the Ventolin seems to provide some relief but he's had a rotten night of it. I don't want to take him out in the cold if I'm overreacting but should I be back at the doctors? He's feeding but less than normal and obviously getting tired v quickly. WHat do you think? He's showing signs of playing with his brother when awake and smiling a bit ie not totally miserable except when coughing.
