    Aw, that's hard as an adult to deal with, I can't imagine as a little baby.

    Poor Aidan! Colds and fevers with no visible cause are the worse. There's not much you can do but make them as comfortable as possible and wait it out. Prayers going up for Aidan and for you and Josh!

    Awww poor little man, I hope he feels much better soon

    If Katie ever coughed like this I used to sit in the bathroom with her, shut the door and windows and put the shower on as hot as possible so she could breathe in the steam

    Anytime Mimi gets congested, I use the Vicks baby-rub on her constantly. Reapplied with every diaper change. It really seems to help, especially overnight.

    But she's never coughed as hard as poor Aidan seems to be.

    Hugs to you both and good thoughts to feel better soon.

    Poor baby and poor you! You guys are in my prayers. Have you tried the sit-in-the-bathroom/steamroom with the hot water running trick? Seems like I spent many a night like that until my lungs cleared enough to get some sleep.
    Ask your vet about microchipping. ~ It could have saved Kuhio's life.

    Not a fun time. Have you elevated one end of his crib? I did that with Jonah one time. It seemed to slightly help.

    I wouldn't get **too** concerned with the loss of appetite. As long as he takes in some fluids, he should be okay. Also, Jonah hated the pedialyte. BUT, the gatorade? That was a winner. I gave him that diluted. Pedialyte is gross.

    Our doctor said he didn't care for PediaLyte, so he suggested Liquilytes from Gerber. I'll try them in a little while.
