My 24 week dd has had a cold for about a week and the past couple of nights it has developed into a dry cough.
I'm using a karvol plug-in and have given calpol when it's got really bad, but it doesn't help the cough. I have also put books under the end of the cot and a damp towel in the room.
She's waking up almost every half hour and falling asleep in my arms. She's on good form otherwise, eating and drinking plenty.
I popped into the chemist to get some more karvol today and spotted Tixylix Baby Syrup on the shelf. I asked the pharmasist and she said it might help. The thing is, I heard a few years back, people giving this to thier kids as in contains something that makes them sleep.
The pharmasist said that she couldn't spot anything on the ingredients, so I thought I'd ask the masses, please advise......
