How to beat the cold

Shame man, how is she doing now? What did the Dr say?

We are taking her to the dr at 09:30 the rash is getting worse and she started coughing AND has a fever.

Kaylee also struggles mostly with blocked / runny noses - at night it always gets blocked when she's sick. No fever, and last time we took her to paed to make sure all else was clear and it was.
They develop a post nasal drip and the illiadin isnt actually the best for this. Cleaning with Saline and aspirating is the best unfortunately not always effective and can take 2 or 20 attemps in the space of an hour to work, resulting in a very unhappy wide awake baby at the end. Also heard of rubbing the Karvol under soles of their feet, and on the pillow and put eucalyptus in the humidifier although I dont like that much.
We were given sinuclear which is basically a saline rinse. Its not metered so a lot can come out at once, and really seemed to help, combined with using salex etc when needed.

I agree, very often babies are very sick and there are few symptoms.

Does she have a fever now? Maybe you should rather have her checked out.

Shame poor little girl, good luck

A runny nose is good, it means it isn't blockes so while it is runny, they can probably breathe still.

Use any saline spray or drops or whatever your lo allows you to put in her nose. The illiadin saline is nice. Try not to use medicated nose sprays unless the doc prescribes them.

Spray first, wait a couple of minutes then suction and you should get rid of loads of whatever is in her nose.

If she struggles to breathe at all please have her see a doc straight away though. There are loads of bugs and Dylan had RSV at 5 months and the only indication was a runny nose.

Frankie I dont think its an allergy nothing new around her and her dad was sick last week so I think she got it from him. BUT nothing is impossible.

She just got up from her nap really hot and little red bumps on her body.... it could just be heat rash..... ai Im not good at his guessing game.

I think it is better for the mucus to come out as opposed to creating havoc inside. When my LG has a cold, I suction very often.

If it is just a runny blocked nose, it could be an allergy? Just a thought.

Not so sure about cold or hot steamer, given the cold weather, maybe the hot one? Maybe someone else can shed some light...
