RSV & Your Baby: Important and Lifesaving Tips for Moms

RSV is frightening when it’s your baby struggling to breathe.

In this episode, host Lisa Urbanski sits down with neonatologist Dr. Susan Landers to break down RSV in a simple, calm, and practical way so moms can move from panic to a clear plan.

You’ll learn how to:
🫁 Understand what RSV is and why infants—especially preemies—are at higher risk
👶 Spot red-flag symptoms in babies and know when to call the pediatrician or go to the ER
💉 Use new RSV prevention tools (like long-acting antibodies and maternal vaccines) to cut hospitalization risk
🤱 Support your baby’s breathing and recovery at home while managing your own fear and stress
💼 Navigate RSV season as a working mom and why trauma-informed care matters for burned-out mothers

This conversation is especially helpful for moms 25–40 who want evidence-based guidance, not panic.
