Does anyone have any advice for soothing a nasty cough?
Izzy has obvioualy picked up some kind of cold, she's all snuffly and sounds like she's rattling when she's breathing, but she also has a nasty dry cough. She's brought up 3 feeds in the last 24 hours as a result of a coughing fit, and the best the dr could suggest was to give her cooled boiled water if she was bringing up too many feeds to keep her hydrated!
I've tried keeping her in a steamy room, which seems to ease the stuffy nose, but I can't think what to do for the cough?
Any advice - it's killing me listening to her coughing and crying
