Been on the porch many a night. And it is so scary when that doesn't work. My daughter had the flu when she was three and developed what they called "strider". She was trying so hard to breathe that her tummy was sucking in almost flat. Very, very scary. And I was pregnant with Ben. She was so scared at the hospital. They kept us over night and she would only sleep with me, not in the hospital crib. She slept, I didn't. I was so worried and uncomfortable with my big belly and trying not to move so I didn't wake her. She didn't get a shot, but they nubulized her.
