Hailey has Croup

Hailey developed a cough on Sunday. It was pretty phlegmy right from the start. Last night is started having a barking tone to it. As today progressed it became worse. I called the pedi and she said it may be the beginnings of Croup. It's not full blown as of yet. She doesn't have the coughing attacks/episodes like described or trouble breathing. Tonight after she went down the cough seems to be stronger and she has woken up crying a few times after being down for just a hour. Tonight may be a long night....

Hopefully this will clear up and not become a textbook case of Croup. We have a humidifier going in her room. That's about as much as we can do for now. My poor sick baby.
