Barrett's First Cold :(

It started last weekend and has been going on since. Barrett has his first cold. He has been feeling miserable. He's coughing and stuffed up. We've all been there, but it is difficult to see your child go through it. He's been a trooper though with all of the saline nose sprays. We've had some interesting feedings, too, to say the least. Today he seems happier (he's actually been really cranky which is out of character for him). The doctor said that his spirits should begin to get better soon although the cough may stick around for another week or so. Ugh! What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right!?!?

Sorry to hear he is sick!! Hope he feels better soon. Kyle talked to Jake yesterday and he said Gwen has a cold too....could winter just be done already?!? Love, Melissa

Yes, it's frustrating but colds come and go (or don't go) all winter long with little ones! Plus, you get them too! Poor baby. I used a baby vapor rub on Gwen's chest to help with the stuffiness. Good luck sweetie.
