Adey's first real cold...sad day

its not fun at all...adey just has a cold but it has been awful! we haven't slept much in the past 4 days at night and i had to call into work yesterday and today. she is getting better so i will work tomorrow and then we have a 4 day paid weekend. i am excited. she was running a low grade and stuffy and sneezy and coughing. i had to use vicks rub and tylenol and suction her nose and throat and run hot water and create a steam for her and the only way she would try to sleep for a few minutes at night before waking from coughing is with me or in her swing. it was not fun and i felt so bad. from the last day of coughing i could tell in her throat that is was sore. she was in pain and there wasn't a whole lot i could do for her! it made me sad...

  1. Keep up the nasal suction! That's the best relief we've found for our kids...natural and it works. They hate it...but it works. I hope she gets better. It's no fun to watch your child go through a sickness.
