His First Cold


And who knows where this came from?  Neither of us has a cold, but today he woke up from another terrible napping experience with a runny nose.  It's gotten progressively worse over the day and he's learned to hate the sight of me coming at him with the bulb syringe.  He, of course, couldn't fall asleep at bedtime because he can't breathe... finally, mercifully, he did.  He sounds terrible every time we check on him. We've got the humidifier going with the menthol mist and we're prepared for a terrible night of stopped up nose and unhappy sleeper!  They forgot to tell us that we'd feel pretty helpless when he got sick for the first time.  Did I mention that it's totally unfair to add this while he's teething?
