Our first cold...

Agree with the PP

Do you have a vapourizer? I swear by ours. I still use it now when my kids get a cold

Hope she's on the mend!

Definitely use a vaporiser if she's finding it hard to breath being all blocked up. Give me a holler and I can drop mine round if you want to use that for a few days.

My ds had his first cold recently 2 years old. Being breastfed he never got sick at all. luckily I never got sick whilst breastfeeding either. so we have the same runny nose now, but it's nothing to worry about. A doctor canT help a cold anyway

Thanks again, and thanks for that lovely offer DB, I'll keep it in mind

The cough is lingering, but she doesn't really seem to be having trouble breathing, apart from when she first wakes and snuggles in for a feed. Then she seems okay. Hopefully she's managed to fight the worst of it off already
