Guest guest Posted November 18, 2002 Report Share Posted November 18, 2002 We are moving my 18 month old son Ashton wcf to Wichita, Kansas. My husband and son are fine with the dry air but I am constantly sick. My throat is so dry I can't sleep and I get multiple sinus infections. I was thinking of running a humidifer that we would clean everyday in our bedroom only and then down the hall, our son would have an air purifier in his room. Does anyone do this? Is this a bad idea? Should we get a warm or cold humidifier?? Sick again-- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 18, 2002 Report Share Posted November 18, 2002 Hi , My daughter had rsv shortly after she was born. The pediatrician recommended cool mist. As long as you clean it religiously, it should be okay. We've never needed one for Josh, but right before he was diagnosed the kept getting pneumonia and they had him in this tent like thing in the hospital. It was also a cool mist. It kept him soaked and miserable. but it worked. humidifier and air purifiers We are moving my 18 month old son Ashton wcf to Wichita, Kansas.
