My ds of 4.5 months has had a snotty cold and a bad chest for 3 weeks now - no sleep, vomiting, etc. He has been to doctors twice and had nose drops. We also think (the doctor) that he may have eczema and he is scratching a lot. We have tried olbas oil, vicks, humidifier but nothing seems to behelping and someone on mn suggested medised so when dp was off to the shops today I asked him to get some. I gave ds some about 1 hour ago and he is now sound asleep after screaming for 4 hours. But since giving it to him I have read that it is a sedative. I feel awful. I wanted to takeaway all the discomfort he was feeling but not to sedate him.
