chesty cough!

[bea]

dd 2yrs... has a little chesty cough at the moment and is starting to get a little rattley in the chest now... am absolutelu paranoid that it could turn into a nasty chest infection... should i give her anything in the hope of stopping it from getting worse... is it worth trying to relieve the sympthoms? she seems fine although obviously not 100%... or is it best just to let it ride it's course!?

thanks oh wise ones!!!

luv an over anxious mum!!

I take my children to the bathroom, steam it up and put Varpour in the bathwater. Always helps for the breathing. If you think it might be a chest infection, I would always see a doctor. could be bronchitis and you might been some antibiotics.....

Hope your DD feels better very soon!!!!!
