should i take her in?

edited July 2012 in Parenting
My lo is sick. Its just a bad cold. She's congested and has a nasty cough. She's only 8.5 Months so can they even give her anything if I take her in? Or should I just deal with it at home.

  • They can't give her anything at that age. I would wait bc if you go in now they might not see anything but if it continues after a couple days it could turn into an ear infection. I would wait and see what happens, but go with your motherly instinct. If a fever starts and continues you need to take her to see if there is an infection.
  • Just do home remedies. Sit in steamy bathroom for 10 min, then go directly into cool air. Supposed to help with congestion.
  • I thought my son had a cold and it was an ear infection. Go in just to have ears checked.
