Hi, my 7 month old baby has had croup 3 times in the last month. All resulting in hospital admission. The first one was life threatening. He has now been referred to ENT.

Has any mums had any experience of this and what the outcome was from ENT?

Also, every time he gets the dexamethasone steroid he is in severe pain the next day screaming and arching his back as if his stomach is sore. Do you think this could be the steroid? Had anyone experienced this?

Thank you
