Baby awake with cold, anyone else?

Baby actually almost 1 now... Has had Calpol and ibuprofen. Breastfeeding loads intermittently, wanting to crawl around/play 🤦‍♀️ screaming if daddy tries to take her.

Anyone else?! Why is your baby up?!

(Friendly/light-hearted post!)

Me too!

My almost 8 month olds nose has been running like a tap today.

Trying to get her back to sleep but she can't breathe and suck her dummy at the same time because she's so congested. Bless her, she keeps getting so frustrated.

Hope your little one is feeling better soon OP and that we all manage a bit of kip. Sad

Have you tried the nose spray?

My almost 1 year old is in and out of colds/bronchitis since September when he started nursery. The past week his nose has been so runny. It feels never ending 🥴

Thanks for your reply, always nice to feel you're not alone in these things!

Tempted to resort to rocking her in the pram soon... 💤

Sorry your little one is so congested, hoping you get some sleep too!

I've got that thing that you suck on one end and it sucks out all the snot from baby's nose on the other 🤣 it helps tremendously, especially at night time.

Thanks for the tips!

I have the nosefrida too and she hates it, though I find it oddly satisfying when she'll hold. 🤣
We have BabyVicks for now which is helping a little, but have a feeling we're in for a long one.

Good luck all!

Calpol plug in is your friend in these scenarios - it works like a dream 👍
