When Paul and I met he did this noise with his throat and if you watch he blinks his eyes constantly!!!!! He does not do the noise anymore ( thank God!! I HATE repetitive noise!) If you bring it to their attention that they are doing it it makes them more aware of it which in turn makes them more self consience (sp) which makes them do it more which makes them aware. It is a vicious cycle. Ignore it and he will out grow it or you will come to a point you will say coughing?<br>melindanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8816332910231771979.post-41460602586457586202006-09-12T08:08:17.000-07:002006-09-12T08:08:17.000-07:00Mom-Thanks for the kind words.

It's nuts! I guess it is a good thing that I have the only boy. It seems to afflict males exclusively.

We played outside for a long time today and I noticed that he didn't cough once. As soon as we got inside, however, he started up again.
