Ugh..DD up for 4 hours after 11pm

Hey girls, looking for some motherly dr advice. DD has a cold. A full blown cold. She cant breathe, runny/stuff nose, irritable and cranky. I used the humidifier with vapors in her room, rubbed vapor rub on her back and chest and gave her warm tea decaffinated. She was up and down and delurious all night. I finally put my hands on the Nose frieda about 230am. Helped somewhat and she finally went to sleep about 3. She only wants to be held by mommy and being PG and not being able to pick her up just doesnt help, so she has to sleep on me, which means Im on my back...cant lay long in that position of course, so I finally peeled myself away after 3 tries without waking her up. Any remedies that work well you can tell me about?

    Why can't you pick up your DD?

    Why can't you lie on your back?

    Little kids colds suck.  Nothing much you can do about them except what you are doing.

    promised myself I'd retire when I turned gold, and yet here I am

    Why can't you pick up your DD? I pulled a muscle.

    Why can't you lie on your back? My body usually gets tingly after laying on my back for more than 30 minutes.

    Just wondering if anyone had some other helpful tips, thanks.

    HaveNt tried this myself but cut an onion and put it in a bag ( or was it cloth?) under her pillow.  It will help the snot to come out and shorten the length of the cold that way.  ( read it mayim baliks book).  Elderberry syrup and perhaps some sink and/ or cod liver oil.  Hope she feels better soon!
