Sam - we always find pamol eases her cough for about 4 hours. So we give that to her if she's got a really nasty cough. And as saraendepity said we turn the shower on and close the door and sit with her in the bathroom for awhile and let the steam do it's thing! Hope he gets better soon. It's not fun dealing with a sick baby!

Sam - i agre with sara on the old steam room trick. Do you have something called/similar to snufflebabe over there? It's like a babies version of vicks if you know what that is? Like a menthal ointment you rub on top of chest.

Cheers girls, yes ill do the shower trik when it gets to bad (i have a air moisturizer for baby's too which i could turn on tonight..)

Poor thing he just slept 3,5 hours straight for his morning nap!

Aww Sam poor Cole We have a tixylix vapouriser which blows round smelly stuff lol its not quite vicks smelling its more sickly sweet or Karvol drops, they work well.
Someone once told me to squirt BM up his nose???

 

[Lunaty]

Ohh boy hahah i think he would scream the house down.. isnt milk suppose to make you only more chesty ?!

Anyhow, yay i got my red Itti AIO finally! Also my fancy pantz is on it's way.. it's sooo cute , and my flip..

So much for not spending money on nappies LOL

 

[JayleighAnn]

Yeah thats what I thought aswell, but apparently it works,I suppose its like them saline water sprays you can get for them, I know I'd prefere BM to salty water ick!

I didn't know you had a blog, just had a nosy! Love the pants - very cute. I've made Leyla a few pairs of fleece pants (not as fancy as yours!) just as back-up for nappies when we're out (I don't appreciate leaky nappies when I'm wearing her)... my OH loved them, so much so that he asked me to make him some as pyjamas!!! So he is now the proud owner of some blue camoflague fleece pants - he looks like Combat Barbie

I always use steam when I have a cold but I add menthol crystals...it works wonder to clear your head if only for a while!

Dewi had a cold and we struggled through because I just didnt think to put him in a steamy room! lol, poor thing was so snotty!

 

[anothersquish]

I'm having a such a good day, I ordered a woven wrap, got my confirmation from WeeNotions that my nappy has finally been dispatched and hopefully will get a wooly soaker from Kirsten. Is it sad that this is now what I consider achievements
