Cold, Runny Nose Advice

My 18 month old has her first cold. She has a runny nose, and drainage that made her gag and throw up a little last night. I could hear that she has a lot of drainage and was having trouble breathing through her nose. I have been SO very lucky that she has been a very healthy child. She just started in a Mother's Day Out program, so I am sure she'll begin to pick up more germs. Can anyone give me advice on alleviating cold symptoms and what to watch for, in terms of this moving to an ear infection? Should I use the humidifier? Vapor rub?...

My daughter Sophia who is a little over a month old has a head cold and her nose is so stuffed up, but she hates when i try to use the suction thing and the saline drops i got don't work very well, is there something i'm not doing or something i'm missing? Maybe someone knows of a good saline drop that actually works?

Toddler with Cough

What do you do for a 2 year old with a really bad cough. Well actually, the cough itself is not that bad or that frequent. It's just that my son will gag from I guess the mucus coming up with the cough and then he will projectile vomit. I know I can't give him any of the childrens' cold and cough medicine. I tried Hyland's cold and cough for kids today which is supposed to be all natural and safe, but it didn't do anything for the cough. Any suggestions? I hate seeing him get so upset!

8 Mo Old with Sniffles and No Appetite

Hello Ladies My 8 mo old son has just come down with his first cold. We are on day 3 now. First day he had low fever 101.5, then 100.5. Second day he had no fever but he has the sniffles and a light shallow cough. I think he has nasal drip and it itches his throat. Now on day 3 he still has sniffles and cough but is refusing to eat solids. I BF'd this morning and after his first nap. Is it common for infants to lose their appetite with cold symptoms. Is he refusing to eat due to a sore throat. I've been giving him saline drops a...
