Is seriously getting on my nerves now! Lucas woke at 2 (been waking through night for weeks now) he still awake next door with dad as my stupid cough keeps waking him. Just stopped in last few mins as made self hot drink but ache all over coughing and dry retching for over hour taking its toll :cry:
 
I just got over it, thank God. And so did my daughters! Imagine sleeping in a tiny room with a 2 year old and a 5 month old - both who are coughing all night. It's a nightmare. :wacko:

I'd recommend you take some echinacea or wellness tea. That or Theraflu.. But what always works for me (with an itchy throat) is gargling really hot water with a lot of salt for 10 seconds, three times each. Also, don't drink anything with sugar and swallow a teaspoon of honey for yourself (I don't know if your baby is old enough for honey yet).

Feel better soon! :flower:
