Maddie woke up with croup at 1130 last night and within a few minutes added Stridor to it. I thought it was asthma so we gave her some Ventolin which did seem to calm it a little but Nathan said she needed to go to hospital and he was right. Maddie's little airways were closing over it was pretty scary. We spent about 4 hours in hospital but Maddie was better as soon as she had the steroids and the oxygen with adrenaline. Hopefully it's not something that happens again, but we have to keep steroids on hand for her just in case.
Photo is from Nathan's phone as she had mine. It's the best I could manage as the rest of the time she was attached to me or crying.
