Ugh! First cold.

Well we made it 17 months, it was a good run! DD has gotten her first cold and panic is setting in! So she started with a cough yesterday. Acted normal, eating, sleeping, playing all normal. She has nothing other than an occasional sneeze with clear drainage. My question is should I wait it out see if any other symptoms pop up in which case I would call her pedi or call now? I don't know if I have to be as hyper vigilant as when she was younger. Cough is dry, no congestion in chest, no respiratory issues.

    I'd say if you're concerned, go ahead and call. Odds are they'll tell you to just keep an eye on it -- and if you start dealing prolonged/elevated fever or any difficulty breathing, to come on in. I'm amazed you made it this far -- way to go mama! :)

    Thanks ladies! I am lucky enough to stay at home with DD so I am able to control her germ intake during the height of the seasons ;) Your responses are exactly what I was thinking, just let it run it's course. Just reassuring hearing from other preemie moms! Thanks again and Boston that picture is toooooo stinkin cute!!!!!
