Once they’re passed the newborn stage a cold shouldn’t be too dangerous (as long as it’s a cold not the flu or RSV) - my son has a cold at the moment and he’s a little more fussy and congested but we’re just saline / aspirating a couple of times a day and he’s been fine! I do totally get the anxiety though, he had bronchiolitis twice when he was a few weeks old so was so anxious incase he got really sick again!

I don’t feel like I got the flu feels like I just have the common cold as I’m still eating and drinking and still doing things just a rotten cold honestly the anxiety when it comes to him I didn’t know I had it until my mum pointed it out, I leave him with her sometimes if I need a break and oh my I’m checking in every 5 minutes xx

I wouldn’t bother wearing a mask tbh.

They are going to get colds, it’s pretty inevitable. My little one has already had like 4 colds and got covid. They are strong little things and bounce back quickly
