Should I be worried..Croup related?
I visited with my nieces and nephew on Friday, and now my 2 nieces have Croup. DS is only 8 weeks, I didn't really let them too close to him but I'm nervous that he will now get it.
They weren't coughing and didn't have fever when I was there, should I be worried?

Croup itself is not contagious it is whatever is causing the croup that could be (my DD gets it from allergies though). There is a chance they could get the cold, virus etc that caused the croup though - but that doesn't mean necessarily your DC will get croup.

correct! DS has had croup 4x and DD has not caught it once. It's a matter of how that cold virus reacts in your child. He may never get it.
