Runny nose and terrible cough

Hey Mama’s My daughter is one and has a cold with a runny nose but also has terrible cough. I’ve given her capol, ginger and thyme tea and liquid vitamins. Any suggestions of anything else I can give her to get rid of it. It’s been over a week now.

sameee ! my baby boy has a terrible cough i’ve never heard anything like it sometimes he struggles to breathe he’s coughing that much and the snot is unbelievable, has she had her injections recently i’m thinking it’s something to do with that ?

@Ellen yeh she has a lot of snot and the cough is really bad. No she’s only had one injection so far. She’s eating, playing fine but at night it wakes her up.

My girl had the same thing for what felt like a couple of weeks. I just had to let it go by itself. Nothing I gave her got rid of it.

@Chleo ok that’s how I’m felling just wondering if there was something im missing that could help.

aww nooo maybe it isn’t the injections then maybe something is going around because mine is so poorly with snot and coughing maybe it’s just a virus i’m not sure but like you said calpol and ibrophen is doing nothing

Yep same my baby has this aswell and a rash.

Yes my little boy has been exactly the same since Monday! He wasn’t getting any better yesterday so I took him to the doctors and she told me he also has tonsillitis ! :(

@Nikky we have considered a nasal aspirater but she doesn't let me go near her with it 🫣

Unfortunately there isn’t a lot you can do, babies will catch anything and everything but at least they are building up their immune system! Some things I do to help symptoms (but not necessarily get rid of) are use a humidifier, Calpol vapour plug and/or saline nasal spray.

What can i do to help my 1 year olds blocked nose

Who’s using broncho stop junior for cough?
