I'm really worried about my little one. He had pneumonia when he was just 9 months old, and since then he keeps getting sick every few weeks, like every 23 weeks or so. Now he's got a fever and cold, and he's coughing with wheezing again. Is there a pattern here, or something we should be doing differently? This keeps happening, and I feel like I'm missing something important. Would love your advice on what steps to take next.
