Toys: Albuterol

Suggestions to Make Nebulizer Treatments for a 9 Month Old Easier

My son was just diagnosed with asthma so we have to give him albuterol and pretnizone through a nebulizer and he HATES it. We've tried holding the mask up and holding toys in front of him and he still fights and fights. We've physically strapped him in his carseat and held his head and he cries the entire time he's getting a treatment, which takes about 15 minutes. The doctor said that crying is good because he'd be taking deeper breaths, but we have to do this twice a day and it is just heartbreaking to hear him scream for 30 minutes a day...
