Cough and cold
Show your support
@Maria thank you! I'm not BF anymore unfortunately due to a milk allergy. Should I give her Calpol if she doesn't have a temp? Will it still help? Xx
@Jess Mine has and yes, you can give calpol and also ibuprofen (I got the liquid one like calpol from amazon) to releive cold symptoms. I have used a snot sucker, a spray and also a Snuffle Babe vic rub on her chest and feet xx
@Ashleigh thank you so much! She seems fine in herself just has a chesty cough and cold bless her!
@Jess Yes! As Ashleigh said 😇 a snot sucker would help clear out mucus. I personally use fridababy saline spray to soften it. All the best mamas! Your little ones will feel better soon. 😊
Calpol for a temp Saline to aid congestion I used baby vapour rub on chest and feet Nothing else as their little bodies need to learn to fight these viruses. Wishing you and your little one well x
Snot sucker, calpol plug in, saline drops and snuffle babe. X
Saline drops & snot sucker for nose Calpol plug in the bedroom Olbas oil in the sink in a steamy bathroom during bath time Vapour rub on chest & feet. Plus socks over the top of sleepsuit Wouldn’t use calpol unless temperature as it won’t do anything for a cough. Expect sleep to be disrupted but it’ll soon pass 😀
We used the calpol plug in and it was life changing! Really helped her sleep at night
Calpol plug in is a must! Saline drops also and a snot sucker x
@Jess How is she today? Xx
@Ashleigh she slept through the night fine! Bit more chesty this morning but have given her some nurofen and it seems to have helped! Thank you for asking xxx
Hope your little one feels better soon! If you’re breastfeeding - keep on doing it as it will produce antibodies for her to recover. Otherwise - maybe saline drops and calpol.
