Treating a baby's cold

Don't worry, your child is suffering from a little cold, it's a common ailment that can be easily treated.

  • With the arrival of autumn and winter, colds affect both adults and children.
  • Sneezing, runny nose, and tickling throat are the most common symptoms.
  • Impossible to avoid, colds heal spontaneously in 3 to 5 days.
  • You can relieve your baby by decongesting their airways.
  • Use a seawater-based solution or saline solution, and then remove the mucus with a nasal aspirator.
  • If in doubt, consult your pediatrician.

I'm typically a very warm person and my feet almost never gets cold unless outside in the freezing cold. But this is my fifth pregnancy (hopefully 3rd baby), And I've noticed every time I get pregnant, My feet turn ice cold. I never really hear that symotom get talked about, does anybody else get that or is that unusual?

It might have something to do with blood flow. I suggest getting your thyroid checked though because pregnancy can cause thyroid problems and cold tolerance is a symptom of underactive thyroid

I didn't make that relation. I do have a history of hypoactive thyroid, and was on medicine in the past, but that's been under control for quite a while without medication. But maybe at my first check up I'll have them check my thyroid. Thank you

I am currently fighting a cold with a sore throat and was wondering what cold medications I can take that are safe while breastfeeding that won't hurt the baby or my supply?

You could try to gargle with hydrogen peroxide and take Tylenol.
