2 month has a runny noise, a cold. is there anything I can do? he has had it for 9 days now?
Answer:
Talk to your pedi. It sounds like a cold which is viral, and just has to run it's course.
You can use saline drops in the nose t loosen anything that has dried then use the bulb syringe to suck out the goop.
I hate when babies are sick. Try to avoid antibiotics unless it really is a bacterial infection. Mine will do a quick blood test to confirm before prescribing antibiotics.
Go to the doctor and get some antibiotics!
How about taking him to his pediatrician ?
Talk to your health visitor or make a appointment to see your baby,s GP.
Dont ever ask for antibiotics at a doctor first and foremost for the man who told you to on here first thing. You can build up an imunnity to them and then later in life you baby might not be able to get the help it needs. BUT I would call a pediatrician and get him/her in for an appointment. Only things I know of that can help may ve a cool mist humidifier? That young there really isnt a lot you can do. The doctor may be able to give you somethign though. But that young dont use anything over the counter wise. ?Bets bet will be a pediatrician visit.
I would suggest taking the baby to the doctor instead of asking people on here who are not doctors
For a cold, get a cool mist humidifier, and add some hydrogen peroxide to the water. (about a pint of peroxide to the gallon of water) Run that at night while he sleeps. That will help to fight any infection, and keep the mucus loose so he can cough up any phlegm more easily. The body makes hydrogen peroxide to fight infection, so you are not adding some alien molecule, but helping the body do its own thing better. A warm bath or shower often helps.
CHILDREN ARE PRONE TO INFECTIONS WHEN EXPOSED, ITS NOT A BIG DEAL JUST BE SURE TO SEE YOUR PAEDIATRICIAN HE/SHE MIGHT PRESCRIBE ANTIBIOTICS. HAPPY MOTHERHOOD
If your two month old has a runny nose and that is all, since you did not specify a fever, vomiting, etc. Then he does most likely have a cold, and there is no cure for the common cold, the doctor will not prescribe antibiotics for a common cold. If that is the case, no fever, no vomiting, etc. Just a runny nose then don't waste your time going to the doctor. There is a a great product line for small children and infants, it is made by little remedies. They have products such as Little Colds, Little Noses, etc. Check out their website. And if all else fails go to the store and buy some infant Tylenol, just read the bottle to make sure you get the right one for runny nose.
Take him to the dr's. He is the only one who can tell you for sure what the problem is.
