if you're worried about her breathing, i think i might do the ER. i'm not sure how equipped urgent care facilities are to deal with infants.

good luck! the croupy cough is the worst!

ER. I would prefer to already be in a hospital setting if it was something bad. I hope M is ok!!

ER! hope she feels better soon!

I'd say urgent care.... but is she experiencing any other symptoms? temp? increased work of breathing? If so, then I might say ER.

Urgent care around where I am is good.. I have waited a really long time at the ER and they totally did not know how to handle and infant. They missed an ear infection and totally could not catheterize my DD.

Is she having trouble breathing or just a croupy cough? If there is any concern with the way she is breath (rapidly, shallow, labored) I would go to the ER. If not I would go to the Urgent Care, they treat babies all the time around here and you generally get in and out faster. You will get in quickly in the ER, but might spend a lot of time waiting to be discharged.

Just for croupy cough, I would say urgent care. If her breathing was off I'd lean ER. Thinking of you guys

@mediagirl: thank goodness her lungs are clear. I was so worried! Feel better little M!

Oh no! I'm glad that she doesn't have croup but the ear infection sucks : /
