RSV: What is it? One Mom’s Personal Story and Advice from a Pediatrician

October 18, 2010 By Alex

Finn, happy to be out of the hospital.

I had first heard of RSV when Breezy Mama Kelly gave birth to her first-born at 32 weeks. It was winter, and because her daughter was premature, she was scared to death of her having RSV. That was pre-kid time for me, and I didn’t think much about it after. Since that time, I’ve read the occasional magazine article about RSV, but still didn’t know all the details–until last winter, when my friend Kareen’s newborn, Finn, landed in the hospital because he had it. Kareen shares her story below followed by some explanations and details from Pediatrician’s Dr. Jon Conti about what RSV is, exactly.  He also lets the rest of whose kids haven’t had it, know what to do. –Alex
