She says they can't diagnose for definate until he is about 2 but has prescribed a puffer and spacer.
He's only 6 mths old.
He's always been a wheezy baby, at first I didn't think much of it as it was quite rare but it's getting more common now. A kinda whistly noise but it gets very raspy as he's falling asleep.
He coughs a fair bit on and off during the day/night.
I'm worrying about what happens if he has an attack during the night (or day for that matter) I have very limited experience with ashtma.
Is it my fault for not BF past 6 weeks?
I have always had a horrible sense of dread about him getting ill/ dying, since the GP at my post natal 6 week check pointed out that the highest risk of a baby dying is during the first year. And now this.
Any experiences / thoughts/ advice?
