cough cough cough

This week has been full of Wheezy coughers.
Many of our kids have had the ongoing congestion for well over a week.
Happy kids, who are eating well, sleeping well, have clear mucous, no fever, unlabored breathing do not need to be seen.

I do want to see anyone who is very fussy, has a fever lasting more that 3 days, has green or yellow mucous that doesn't clear after several days or has any labored breathing.
If your child's eye's get gooey it can often be associated with an ear infection. It is probably worth a call or a visit.

Wash your hands and stay warm and dry this weekend if you can!!
