Posting here for traffic and quick advice.
DS (5) has a horrible, horrible mucousy cough.
He's had a bit of a cold for a couple of days but this cough is something else!
He's coughing so much it's making him sick, and he's so, so miserable.
I'm not going to take him to the doctor for a cough, nor do I really want to take him to town with me to see a pharmcist because
a) The virus he has seems to spread really easily and I'm sure the general population would rather avoid it
b) We'd have to walk and it's pissing it down and windy and the poor sod has a bit of temp.
I seem to remember that kids cough syrup doesn't really do anything anyway is that right?
I will go into town and get anything I need, can leave DS with my Dad, who has the same virus anyway.
I've tried steam baths with eucalyptus/menthol in, vapour rub etc etc.
AIBU to ask for any medicines/remedies/home made stuff you use for wee ones with horrible coughs?
