We did an antibiotic for possible mycoplasma (walking pneumonia). Which is good because I was just positively diagnosed with them. So now I am on antibiotics. Yeah it's been fun... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-cough-that-just-wont-stop#post-2163277 Fri, 01 May 2015 00:36:42 +0000 StbHisMrs 2163277@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs Green Grass: Thank you!! I'll read it.@birdofafeather: I was actually going to buy some local honey tomorrow, do you think it helped? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-cough-that-just-wont-stop#post-2163273 Fri, 01 May 2015 00:33:03 +0000 Boogs 2163273@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine has a constant cough because of post nasal drip caused by allergies. Maybe it's an allergy situation and that's why it hasn't gone away? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-cough-that-just-wont-stop#post-2163271 Fri, 01 May 2015 00:30:17 +0000 birdofafeather 2163271@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@StbHisMrs: My DD had a similar cough that lasted about a month and a half. Sometimes runny nose, but otherwise no symptoms and it was only when she slept too. Not really during the day. We did all the same things and even got some local honey thinking maybe it was allergies. It just went away for good last week. Doctor said if she got a fever bring her in but it was just the cough. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-cough-that-just-wont-stop#post-2163269 Fri, 01 May 2015 00:22:56 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 2163269@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p><a href="http://babymakingmerrygoround.blogspot.com/2015/01/we-got-whooping-cough.html?m=0" rel="nofollow">http://babymakingmerrygoround.blogspot.com/2015/01/we-got-whooping-cough.html?m=0</a></p> <p>I found my blog post on it for you because it's hard to remember details. I just skimmed it and I wrote that it started as a tickle, then eventually got more phlegmy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-cough-that-just-wont-stop#post-2163266 Fri, 01 May 2015 00:17:52 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 2163266@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@StbHisMrs: my symptoms were actually much worse than lo's. He wasn't extrmely bothered by it. And when they tested him, I was surprised. By the trick is that it just keeps getting worse. I do think his was worse than a tickle, but it's a dry cough. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-cough-that-just-wont-stop#post-2163251 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 23:49:54 +0000 coopsmama 2163251@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs Green Grass: I second this. </p> <p>I have a friend who just had her LO tested this week for pertussis due to a never ending cough. It came back positive so that's definitely my first thought here, too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-cough-that-just-wont-stop#post-2163247 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 23:43:49 +0000 StbHisMrs 2163247@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs Green Grass: They didn't sound too concerned, but they'd like to see her on Tuesday.</p> <p>Is their a fever or other symptoms with whooping cough? She has a very shallow dry "tickle" cough. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-cough-that-just-wont-stop#post-2163242 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 23:36:32 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 2163242@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would take him in to have them test for whooping cough. LO andni both had it last October. It's easily treatable with the right antibiotic. It commonly gets worse after the first few weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/the-cough-that-just-wont-stop#post-2163239 Thu, 30 Apr 2015 23:26:37 +0000 StbHisMrs 2163239@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My lo has had a cough since the first week in March, it's been off and on since, no other symptoms except a runny nose sometimes. </p> <p>It has been getting worse everyday since Wednesday, we've been up from 2am - 4:30/5ish each day, and tonight I can't get it to go away. </p> <p>She has a dr appointment on Tuesday, they said to give her Benadryl and honey, so I have, no help. The humidifier, a diffuser with eucalyptus, breathe easier, and peppermint hasn't helped, vick's hasn't helped!! She currently propped up on the couch (covered with towels just in case), I wish I could make this go away!! </p>
