C was on amox for ear infections, I'm sure he's had it at the very least six times and is now allergic to it. The time he had a reaction was when he had pneumonia. </p> <p>The only thing I can do is second the others, humidifier, hot steam shower, rubbing/massaging, and probiotics! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-baby-has-pneumonia#post-767674 Wed, 08 May 2013 12:41:51 +0000 HLK208 767674@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>:( poor baby, I hope she gets better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-baby-has-pneumonia#post-767626 Wed, 08 May 2013 12:24:01 +0000 lovehoneybee 767626@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh poor baby!

She had amox once before at the onslaught of this cold. I was terribly worried about a reaction but thankfully she did fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-baby-has-pneumonia#post-767543 Wed, 08 May 2013 11:43:47 +0000 mrsjyw 767543@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>awww baby girl get well soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-baby-has-pneumonia#post-767539 Wed, 08 May 2013 11:42:35 +0000 sorrycharlie 767539@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>aww, poor girl!!

Poor little M. Hopefully the antibiotic will help her out and she'll feel better soon! Now we know why she was coughing so much. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-baby-has-pneumonia#post-767487 Wed, 08 May 2013 11:26:09 +0000 MamaG 767487@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a terrible time with amoxicillin. It knocks out infections really well, but does really well on good bacteria too. I would try to prevent any fallout in the form of yeast infections and diarrhea. Lots of probiotics!</p> <p>I don't have any recommendations for pneumonia, that's one we haven't dealt with. Good luck mama! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-baby-has-pneumonia#post-767470 Wed, 08 May 2013 11:21:34 +0000 runsyellowlites 767470@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh no!!! Glad it was diagnosed out patient though, I know if a pt is diagnosed in the ER they're automatically admitted so atleast M gets to be comfy at home!</p> <p>I think I've heard nurses massaging the back to help the fluid not settle, &amp; have read about moving bebe a lot for the same reason. (Don't know how true that is) I would do lots of steamy shower sits to keep it loose &amp; lots of snuggles!</p> <p>I'll definitely be praying for a speedy recovery!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-baby-has-pneumonia#post-767444 Wed, 08 May 2013 11:13:16 +0000 Smurfette 767444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Poor thing, hope she feels better soon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-baby-has-pneumonia#post-767440 Wed, 08 May 2013 11:11:48 +0000 Alivoo01 767440@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Poor girl! At least she finally has the proper diagnosis and is receiving the correct treatment.

It might not show up until towards the last few days of the treatment, but if it begins with a bright red face, and spreads, get her back to the doctor immediately. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-baby-has-pneumonia#post-767408 Wed, 08 May 2013 10:58:24 +0000 shopaholic 767408@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>IDK about treatment, but poor thing! :(. Get well soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-baby-has-pneumonia#post-767397 Wed, 08 May 2013 10:56:13 +0000 brownie 767397@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh, I remember your allergy post and then this. My son has had a nasty cough for 8 weeks now and sounds much like what you described in the allergy. And now your poor baby. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-baby-has-pneumonia#post-767395 Wed, 08 May 2013 10:55:20 +0000 MamaMoose 767395@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Aw poor thing!! I'm so sorry. I would just sit in a closed off bathroom with the hot shower running as much as you can to try to break up the fluid so she can cough it out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-baby-has-pneumonia#post-767365 Wed, 08 May 2013 10:49:36 +0000 mediagirl 767365@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>:( Just get well soon, baby girl. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-baby-has-pneumonia#post-767364 Wed, 08 May 2013 10:49:25 +0000 Happygal 767364@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No tips, but I'm so sorry to hear that! Hoping those meds kick in quickly for your girl and she starts feeling better soon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-baby-has-pneumonia#post-767354 Wed, 08 May 2013 10:46:12 +0000 regberadaisy 767354@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm so worried and so pissed off right now. We've taken her in THREE times for a bad cough and each time her ped ruled out pneumonia or fluids in her lungs. He sent her for a xray today to rule out foreign objects and they found fluids.</p> <p>Dr prescribed amoxicillin.</p> <p>Any other tips besides running a cool mist humidifier to speed her healing?</p> <p>Any and all thoughts greatly appreciated!! </p>
