She also gets the red cheeks like Lucy. I can clear them up in an afternoon by applying a bit of Aquaphor to them. Give it a try

Our little Caity is on her first cold now too – only 12 weeks old

Last night was the worst. We figure she must have a sore throat because she started screaming (the “Mom-this-hurts-fix-it” scream) and wouldn’t stop. She wouldn’t eat even when offering her a most favourite treat a.k.a. “the girls”. Probably hurts too much to eat. We gave her a dose of Tempra and she fell asleep. No fever, just green snot everywhere. She can’t eat properly because she can’t breathe …

oh and those stoopid snot suckers that they sell in drugs stores don’t work! Can’t get them in her teeny tiny nostril! Might try one of the ear ones, they have a smaller point. Anyone have any ideas??

I’ve been putting Vicks Vaporub under her nose and that helps a little. Baby cold medicine too.

Now her daddy and I are sick too.

But you know .. Caity’s still such a happy baby (when you’re not wiping her nose or performing some other indignity upon herself). Poor little thing.

I feel your pain Carly….

Love your Auntie Jenni
