Does anyone have any advice to help relieve cold symptoms in a soon to be 1 year old (in 3 day).

You dont say what the cold symptoms are so my #1 suggestion would be to call your pediatrician. Try to speak to a nurse and describe the symptoms. Most peds will tell you the OTC cold meds for infants-toddlers dont work. Unless its an infection that requires anti-biotics, they will probably just have it run its course. But its best to check with them anyway.
Happy Birthday!!!!

I'd take your baby to his/her doctor. They will be able to give you a perscription or recommend an OTC remedy. In the meantime, a vaporizer will help at night so he/she can breath easier and get much needed sleep. Also a little Vicks Vapor Rub on the chest before bed helps to clear out initially and a vaporizer can keep your baby breathing clearer all night. Good luck and I hope your baby is feeling better for his/her birthday!

nope.I would take the baby to the doctor before it gets worse.like phnemonia and the baby can die..so I would hurry and just take the baby to the doctor..cant do much with household items..or call a doctor they might tell you to get cold medicine at the store.
