Sick Baba??

I would say have him checked out. If he was just wheezy, you could always do extra saline in the nose, I dont see any harm in that and will flush out the sinuses just in case. But if he is crying, there is normally a reason. You are going to worry until you go and see someone! Sometimes, I used to stop at my clinic first, the Sister there would look into Sarah's ears, throat etc and help me decide if it was an urgent situation or something that could be left.

By the way, even when Sarah was sick, she never developed a temperature so I could never judge by the temperature!

Good luck and thinking of you!

thanks girls will do I know he is young and thats why its a bit scary!

I agree with Yaz

Claire, I see your baby is under 3 months, so my advice is take him to the paed. Rather don't "experiment" with OTC stuff while they are still small.

Hope he gets better soon! It's terrible to see them in pain.

My child is not himself today, dh came home sounding chesty last night and they did spend time together, now my lb is sounding weezy but has not got a temp, but he has cried most of the morning (even in his sleep) and I cannot console him like normal - so my questions are: should I wait and see if it gets worse and take him to the pead? and is there anything over the counter I can give him because his cries are heart wrenching and he is a very sensitive baba.
