What is croup and what are the symptoms?
Croup is a condition that occurs in young children and babies affecting their windpipe (trachea), the airways to the lungs (bronchi) and the voice box (larynx).
Typically croup is identifiable through the distinctive cough which sounds like a dog's bark - it can also have a harsh, painful-sounding noise when the child breathes in which is known as "stridor".
Across most instances this is a condition that can be diagnosed easily by your GP and then treated at home.
However, if their airway gets blocked and your young one has trouble breathing, you may need to take them to the nearest A&E department.
After her stint on Celebrity Big Brother in 2016, the busy mum landed her very own MTV series called Million Dollar Baby.
Lateysha also had appearances in Ex On The Beach and Just Tattoo Of Us.

Why mums are sticking criss-cross plasters over their children's belly buttons when heading off on holiday this summer

AN unusual parenting hack is going viral online ahead of the summer holidays. However, experts have broken down whether or not this unique step works. 2 cross wound dressing. bandage isolated element Credit: Getty Parents have been placing plasters in a criss-cross shape on their children's belly buttons before travelling this summer. According to them, this DIY trick can help to ward off motion sickness. TikTok mum Victoria ( And another mom-fluencer Ttsagana ( Read More On Parenting "Here's what I do to prevent motion sickness," she informed her TikTok followers. Instagram user Jasmin ( "I know, it sounds super crazy, but it totally works for both my children," she said. "They used to be so poorly during longer car rides." Most read in Fabulous However, there is no science to back up this step as a method of curbing motion sickness. Pediatrician Mona ( I've tried for ages to potty train my 3-year-old, then he watched ONE Ms Rachel's video and started doing it immediately First, she explained that motion sickness happens when the brain gets conflicting messages. The inner ear senses movement when travelling on a vehicle so when your child is focused on something still like a book or tablet, their brain gets confused. This causes a mismatch which can result in nausea, dizziness, and sometimes vomiting. "So unless this band-aid hack can magically rewire the entire sensory system, it's just another myth," Dr. Mona said. However, she added that if it seems to have a placebo effect on your child, then you should continue using it. More parenting hacks IF you want to make your life easier as a first-time mum, here's nine hacks you won't want to miss. 1. Routine Charts Create visual charts for daily routines. Use pictures and stickers to make them engaging for younger children. 2. Meal Planning Plan meals a week in advance to save time and reduce stress. Involve your children in meal prep to teach them cooking skills. 3. Toy Rotation Keep a portion of toys stored away and rotate them periodically. This keeps playtime fresh and exciting without the need for constant new purchases. 4. DIY Cleaning Solutions Make child-safe cleaning solutions using vinegar and baking soda. It's effective and keeps harsh chemicals away from little hands. 5. Time-Out Jar Create a time-out jar filled with calming activities written on slips of paper. When emotions run high, children can pick an activity to help them settle down. 6. Educational Apps Utilise educational apps and websites to make screen time productive. Look for ones that offer interactive learning in subjects your child is interested in. 7. Command Centre Set up a family command centre with a calendar, key hooks, and a bulletin board. It helps keep everyone organised and aware of daily schedules. 8. Emergency Kit Keep a small emergency kit in the car with essentials like snacks, water, first aid supplies, and a change of clothes. It's a lifesaver for unexpected situations. 9. Label Everything Use labels for clothes, school supplies, and lunch boxes. It makes it easier to keep track of belongings, especially in shared spaces like schools. And if your child continues to feel sick while travelling, the health professional recommended other ways to tackle motion sickness. She advised parents to consider the seat position of their child if aged two or older. According to her, you should also keep your car cool and crack a window if possible. Distracting your child by playing I Spy or encouraging them to look out the window can also help nausea. And finally, hold off on heavy meals before travelling and focus on light snacks to settle your child's stomach.

'Our sister died of cancer at 23 because of anti-vax mum's actions and beliefs'

The daughter of a conspiracy theorist nurse died from cancer after being indoctrinated by her mother into refusing conventional treatment, her siblings claim. University graduate Paloma Shemirani passed away in July last year aged 23, just seven months after being diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma – a form of blood cancer. Her mother Kate Shemirani, who rose to prominence as a notorious anti-vaxxer during the Covid pandemic, was struck off the nursing register in 2021 for her extreme views. Paloma Shemirani. Pic: Instagram Paloma's brothers, Gabriel and Sebastian, claim she ultimately refused chemotherapy – despite doctors saying it would give her an 80% chance of survival – because of pressure from their mother. They also allege their mother sought to isolate her from friends, her boyfriend and the wider family, even as the cancer's progression became distressingly clear. Speaking to the BBC ahead of a Panorama documentary that aired on Monday night, Sebastian said: 'My sister has passed away as a direct consequence of my mum's actions and beliefs, and I don't want anyone else to go through the same pain or loss that I have.' Ms Shemirani, 60, continues to call herself a 'natural nurse' despite being banned from practising in the UK. Sebastian Shemirani, brother of Paloma Shemirani. Pic: BBC She used social media to claim Covid vaccines had 'a tiny bit of Satan' in them, that the jabs caused cancer and contained material harvested from aborted foetuses. Ms Shemirani, who has not commented on her sons' claims, is said to have worked for Britain's NHS in the 1980s. She was then a British Airways hostess and model, before administering Botox, fillers and peels. She now shares her extremist views on the UK health service, immigration and vaccines with her 81,000 social media followers. In 2012, Ms Shemirani was diagnosed with breast cancer and underwent a double mastectomy. But online, she appears to suggest that she was healed after 'Gerson therapy' – a baseless alternative medicine that advocates a plant-based diet and coffee enemas to treat cancer. When Paloma was diagnosed, Ms Shemirani texted her daughter's boyfriend: 'TELL PALOMA NOT TO… CONSENT TO CHEMO OR ANY TREATMENT.' Paloma did not agree to chemotherapy, even as doctors raised fears over her mother's overt influence. Kate Shemirani. Pic:Gabriel had asked to see his sister, only to be told she could not go out because of the 'bad air'. He launched a legal bid to have her medically assessed, but it never came to pass. Paloma suffered a heart attack caused by her tumour, and was taken off of life support. He only found out days later via his lawyer, and had to break the news to Sebastian. An inquest into her death is due to start next month. Ms Shemirani claims, without any evidence, that the British health service killed her daughter 'in the name of medicine and cash for corpses'.
