I have a cool mist. My ped said that was better..warm mist can breed bacteria. I think mine is Vicks.
We're battling a cold here too...I would keep doing what you're doing. Chat Icon

If the fever keeps up though, call the ped!

I think we have the same one and it does help a lot.

I also got the cool mist for the fact that if it falls, no one will get burned by anything.

I have both - the Vicks Cool and Warm mist humidifiers. DS responded better to the Warm one as far as the running nose and clearing his head. The cool one is noisier too!

Our house gets very dry in the winter so we have humidifiers running at night in both our room and DS's. We have a Hunter cool mist. I think we got them online and they were about $25. If anything happens to them, you call Hunter and they replace it for free.
