Sick Baby/Creating bad habits?

We're on vacation (away from home) and K is sick. Stuffy/runny nose, super congested and a cough. It's not awful during the day, but night time is horrific. Poor little guy can barely breathe. He's been sleeping with us in bed b/c it's easier than getting up 20 times a night to replace his paci or soothe him back down. I think he's doing a lot of comfort eating too. I find I'm nursing him to sleep for every night and at night b/c that's the only way he'll settle.
*sigh* I hope when he's better things will get back to normal. On the upside, I think it's boosting my supply b/c he's eating so often. Poor little dude...it's awful to hear him sick, but I hope I'm not creating any bad habits in the meantime.

  • Hmmm. We just went through this. She's better now but has decided she doesn't want to sleep in her crib anymore.

  • First of all, I'm so sorry that LO is sick during your vacation! What awful luck:( 
    I would just do whatever you need to at this point until LO gets better and not worry at all about establishing bad habits. When DD is sick, I nurse her constantly, hoping to pass her as many of my antibodies as possible. I really think it's one of the most beneficial aspects of BFing so take advantage of it! 
    Hoping your DS gets better soon:)

    I let my LO sleep in the rnp when she was sick and she transitioned back just fine..


    I have a Daughter born 2/26/2013. She is pretty much amazing!
