What to do for a cold?
Jared sounds like he has a cold...he's all congested and sneezy. His eyes keep watering too. What do you do for a cold?

I did warm baths and would gently massage his forehead. When the congestion gets worse, I would use eucalyptus oil (found in any health food store). I would just dab a bit on a tissue & put it near the baby...DO NOT put in on the baby...i think it's too strong.

Re: What to do for a cold?
I remember my pediatrician recommending the following when Jenna had a cold:
Keep her elevated as much as possible
use a vaporizer
use saline drops with nasal aspirator
increase fluids-if she was real congested I would dilute her formula with water
I also liked to give her warm baths with the vapor bath-I felt they helped.
