Cold, Day 2


Thomas is snotty, crusty and snorty....and I don't mean the wicked stepbrothers of the Seven Drawfs.  He is having a hard time breathing well and is sneezing, snorting and then coughing. We've got the humidifier going, I'm causing him great consternation with the bulb syringe, and he's taking small power naps every little while. He slept better than we thought he was going to last night, and he didn't get really upset about being congested until about 6 this morning.  We got him calmed down, suctioned out his nose and held/rocked him upright so he could go back to sleep.  We ended up propping him more upright in bed with us and he slept for a while longer. He's handling it all okay and is just needing some extra TLC to feel better. We got some Vick's baby rub for his congestion tonight, we'll let you know.
