My mini me is sick :cds: she has been coughing since Saturday And its getting worse. Poor girl between coughing she's sneezing. All she wants to do is cuddle with me and wants me to hold her. :cds: I don't want to get get sick again. She has no fever so I'm glad there but she looks like death.i hate when my kids a sick. So far no Meds are working so I'm going to try some home remedies. It's going to be a long day :/

My two-year old Grand had to go to Urgent Care over the weekend for a barking cough. She was diagnosed with Croup. Poor thing! I hope Mini gets well quick.

My son has the cough. He had it off and on last week. A lot of kids at daycare sound the same way. He did however have a little vomiting spell on Friday a.m. Threw up 4 times from 6 a.m .till noon. Then POOF, he was fine, has been fine since. The cough does come and go through the night.

Find a new doctor. I will not stick with a doctor that cannot get my sick child in the same day. Two days is way too long to wait with a sick child. But, that's just my opinion. :shrug:

I agree ! My pediatrician has never failed to get me in. AND they have an after hours walk in clinic Tues-Thursday open till 7 which helps !!
 
What's PND? Post Nasal Drip? You can get over the counter Allergy stuff for that. Feel better soon!!

Yes. I've tried everything, decongestants, allergy, etc... only helps for a little bit, but I can't take those meds often enough to keep up.

Thanx for the concern.

Find an old cough syrup bottle; wash it thoroughly and make your own cough medicine.

Two thirds of the bottle; clover honey; top it off with whiskey.

One to two teaspoons at bedtime; start with one; and the little one will sleep through the night; no coughing.

That cough will last about 2 weeks. It's no fun.

My daughter has had it for 6 weeks now. She's been to the doctor three times and we've completed 2 rounds of antibiotics and she's still coughing.

I'm beginning to think shes' developing asthma :cds:

It's That Time Of Year

If adults passing it along isn't bad enough; if ya have little one's in school, count on the whole household getting sick. That happens every year at this time down at my Brother's place; four school-age kids; and all it takes is one of 'em to bring it home and everybody gets it within a week or two.
Just makes for an uncomfortable holiday; but we manage.

I hope not. Check in to seeing an Allergist maybe. Asthma can be BAD!

I'm swearing by 1 teaspoon honey and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon...both are antibactirial, antiviral, and antifungal. I had the beginnings of a cold and took it twice a day for three days and my cold was gone.
