Sick baby

My fourteen-month-old is currently recovering from a head cold and these are all my favorite go-to items.

🦠First and foremost, I am not a medical professional

and this is not medical advice🦠

🌟 Honest Sniffer Soothers & Boogie Wipes are always a household must

🌟 Vicks Baby Rub (we also have the Oilogic chest rub stick & Matys Baby Chest Rub

🌟 Saline Spray of any kind works! We have on hand Little Remedies & Frida Baby

🌟 Frida Baby NoseFrida snot sucker!!! 🙌🏼

🌟 Mommys Bliss cough & mucus syrup for day & nighttime! ☀️🌙

🌟 Frida Baby rectal thermometer (any rectal thermometer will work)

🌟 Infants Motrin when a fever is present (I use infant Tylenol as well but favor infant Motrin/Ibuprofen because it lasts 6-8 hours compared to Tylenol which lasts 4-5 hours)

🌟 The last slide is Oilogic stuffy nose & cough lotion. I didn't have any on hand but I swear by it! The entire brand is great. Vapor & sleep products!

🍼I had a 2oz bag of colostrum I froze when I had my son and I thawed it out and was able to make three syringes. Two had 5MLs & the other 3.75ML. I gave him one before bed and in the morning! The last will be used at bedtime again!

🍲 Who doesn't love chicken noodle soup when sick? Homemade was 1000% better and he loved it. He even sucked up spoonfuls of the chicken broth and it seemed to soothe his throat!

- I used a can of chicken and cut it up which basically shredded it, half a can of carrots, half a box of noodles, about half a can of chicken broth, and I put garlic salt & powder, chicken seasoning, and one shake of red pepper flakes! I just used what I had in the pantry to whip it up!

Always talk to your baby’s pediatrician before giving them any medication and if you notice any fever or difficulty breathing. It’s better to be safe. If they have a fever I found it very helpful giving them a bath (not too cold). I like to have my son on a shirt and I keep him with lightweight
