8 week old cold!

Hi I need some advice or tips!! I took my 8 week old to the doctors this morning because she’s had a cough and sounds quite congested. They said she just has a little cold and she doesn’t have a fever and she’s feeding fine. But does anyone have any tips to help, I’m worried that it’s affecting her breathing causes she’s bunged up. Even though the doctor just said it’s normal. I want to use a vapour plug in but she’s too young. I’ve got an air purifier and i’ve been using the breath easy spray but I feel like I need to do more!! Please help, i’m stressing so much and i’m not sure if it’s cause I’m a first time mum and i’m overthinking. I literally can’t sleep cause she coughs in her sleep and I’m so worried I’m not gonna be there to sit her up.

I was told putting them in the bouncer or something whilst you're in the shower with the door closed is great for congestion

@Becky yeah i did try that earlier and i’m not sure it helped, or if i just didn’t do it for long enough X

Vapour rub on feet at night time also can put vapour rub in wax burners

@Heather Kelly i really want to use something like this but it says from 3 months and idk if i should risk it x

I’ve used nose things for my girl from new born and it’s been totally fine but it’s understandable if you want to wait for the right time , but it can definitely help a lot to get the bogies out to help them breath xxxx

The nose suckers are really good to use aswell xx

thank you xx

Your more then welcome xxx

We were given sterimar spray for our lg when she was a baby with a cold. She didn’t like having it done but always slept better after it helped clear the congestion
