Drooling
Families views
When Brett is getting sick or has a cold, he has the same type of bubbling over with
saliva when he is sleeping. It is all about positioning him the right way so he doesn't "bubble"
over. I just check on him every 1-2 hours to suction excess slobber and wipe his face. I figure it is better
for it to "bubble" over than to settle in his system. When he wakes up and we take the bi- pap off,
he usually has a big "booger" of stuff in his mouth. We cough and suction him and he is fine. I know
that doesn't help much, but I know Dr. Bach says to try to leave them on the bi-pap a couple hours at a time.
We usually do a cough treatment every 3 hours at night when he is sick. I will try to answer any more
questions if you have them. Kristal
Lots with SMA drool at night though! More so if
your a "mouth breather" at
night like me. Plus I cant swallow laying so I drool.
