Stuffy Nose
Last night was a hard night for me. I couldn't stay asleep because my nose was all stuffed up and runny. I was sooo tired, but I must have woken up at least 10 times in 3 hours because of my nose! My parents discovered that my crib sheets were all damp from my runny nose. :( After midnight, I woke up about 5 more times, I am so tired today from not getting a good night's sleep. So my grandparents bought me a neat vaporizer/humidifier for my nose today. I've also been drinking barley tea and apple juice and lots of water. Besides my runny nose and my voice sounding a little stuffed up, I'm the same! Mommy carries Kleenex and Vaseline with her everywhere now for my nose. My parents feel so bad for me. This is my first time getting sick (if you don't count my jaundice and acid reflux from before). Maybe I caught it from daddy? But here's hoping to getting better fast and getting a good night's sleep tonight (for all of us)!!

Hi Mel! It's Norma. So sorry to hear little Joshua's sick. He's about 6 months now, right? Aidan actually caught a cold right when he hit 6. I think it's common. I guess it's really true that breastmilk loses a lot of its immunity properties around then. I had the hardest time using the nasal aspirator on Aidan (he hates that thing!) so I had to resort to clearing his nose with my mouth a couple times!! take care!
Hi Melissa...poor Joshua. Isabel had a cold a few weeks ago, and we even had to go to the mountains since Ted spoke at a retreat. abigail caught her first cold around this age also...try to keep him propped up so he can breathe better...does he sleep well on the carseat or bouncer? Just a thought...or elevate the crib on the head side. Hope you get some rest! Love this site!
