Getting some Zzzs with sick babies.

Getting sleep is pretty rough when the kiddos are sick. We have had a pretty rough bout of being sick lately which is what has prompted me to post this. Sleep really does help you get better so if your child is sleeping a lot then just let them sleep. However if they are not sleeping there are very few things you can do to help your little ones but here are a few of my tips!
*Cool mist humidifier, it not only provides "white noise" but also helps with congestion etc.
*Vicks, to rub on my little guys chests to help open their airway.
*If they are really congested then try raising the head of their mattress a little bit so that their head is elevated.
*Tylenol and Ib profen, to help with fevers.
*For older children try giving them a teaspoon of honey.

Remember being sick doesn't last forever but still try to get some sleep.
