Re: Oh no, I think L is getting sick

  • I have the humidifier on because the A/C is really drying out the air and Sam is also struggling with some kind of illness right now.?

    I hope L feels better soon! ?

  • Maybe some baby motrin to bring down some of the inflammation in her nose?  I think we can start giving that at 6 months...

  • I don't know if you can do a Vaporub on babies, but my mom used to do it for my congestion when I was young. Check with your pedi, if possible, but it worked wonders.

  • Humidifier if you have one.  We've been fighting a cold the past ~2 weeks and my pedi mentioned that more frequent feedings might be good in case her throat is sore - it'd be nice for her to have something to drink to help her throat.

    We don't use vaporub, but we have a vicks thing that you plug into the wall. It really helps!
