Goodness so I recently posted something on here about my daughter being sick. Well I took her to the doctor and he says she just has a virus and there is not much I can do for her. I jusr gotta let it pass. But I feel like she just is getting worse. Ugh anybody no what I can do for her. She cries out when she coughs.

Have you tried sitting in the steam with her? It always helps my daughter and settles her cough when she's sick..

My son when sick it's ALWAYS worse at night. I propped him up on a few pillows so it's not as bad, and lots of vicks vabor rub, that really helps him! I keep drinks in his room so if he coughs he can get a drink, and a humidifier if you have one. I hope she feels better!

I took her in yesterday morning to the doctor. She seems to only cough a few times during the day. But when night time comes and I put her to sleep she just has horrible cough. It gets horrible and she cries so much so I know its hurting her plus it gags her. Just crazy never seen her have a cough before like that.

How long since you've been to the doctor? If it's getting worse I'd take her back, my niece just got sent home for a cough from her ped. (she's almost 2) and she got worse over a few days and ended up having bronchitis, so if you feel like she's getting worse I'd get her checked again! Sick kids are the worst! :(

Thank you for your support. Would be nice if she would lay in the bed with me like she has been the last few nights being almost 35 weeks pregnant with my 2nd makes me more exhausted.
