| | | | | | | | 1. vicneedscoffee (875) | 5 months ago | I wouldn't recommend one for no reason, but given the circumstances I think it would be wise. If pneumonia is suspected I would certainly have the X-Rays taken. An X-Ray will tell the doctor if the baby has pneumonia so he can treat her properly. A couple of X-Rays won't hurt her, but not treating her properly could. It can be hard to know what is right sometimes. Sometimes it comes to the lesser of two evils. I hope you both feel better soon.

| | 2. saint_michael (40)  | 5 months ago | I don't think x-rays are good for babies because if we see scientifically then its clear that rays like gamma rays can penetrate even through tissues and bones of a normal adult and x-rays don't penetrate through.But in case of a baby the tissues and bones are very soft and that'sthe reason x-rays also do penetrate through and that's might also be the reason of coughing and vomitting. And that also if chest x-ray is done than it is more dangerous and x-rays do produce harmful effects if they penetrate through bones or delicate tissues like that of chest. So my personal recommedation is to avoid having x-rays for babies. But the rest is ofcourse upto to u and also on the doctors recommedation.

Maybe you can discuss that to him and hopefully other members who have that experience will help you give some advice!

| | 4. indianpedi (1163) | 4 months ago | You should get the X-ray of the chest done if your doctor says it is necessary. Pneumonia can be very serious and you need to take precautions, as your doctor says. One X-ray as such will not cause any harm to your baby, but I agree that repeated X-rays DO. In your baby's case however, it seems likely she won't need too many X-rays, so you should just go ahead and have it done. Who knows? It may even show she doesn't have pneumonia and will get better with lesser treatment!
