Princessmya,

I have my posts overlooked too but it doesn't offend me at all as we are all very busy mums and i no that i skim through most posts and answer only sometimes.Sorry that you felt this way though.

In reference to colds and snuffles. Shayla has the snuffles at the moment and i tok her to the doctor not much will solve the problem at this age. I have been doing the following which might be of help to you:

1. Euky bear rub a little on the chest or the clothes
2. I have saline nose drops called Fess little noses with soft tip nasal aspirator - this is a thing that can suck the mucus out of your little ones nose.
3. I also have her cot mattress raised at the end so she is slightly sleeping upright so the fluid and gunk stops running down the back of her throat etc.
4. A vicks vaporizer for her room - Not cheap but a good investment

It has cleared up but keeps coming back but it is mainly the cane harvesting and pollen and that in the air in cairns thats causing her snuffles etc.

Maybe you could also try Infacol and put this in ashleys bottle if FF or give him some before you BF as this seems to get the wind out of Shayla. She is both FF and Bf i have changed her formula as well to be Karicare thickened formula and she seems to be not as windy as it is designed so bubba sucks her fluids slower (thicker so harder.)

Hope this helps you and good luck
