I doubt you'll find any medicine that's approved for under 2 or 4... Natural or otherwise. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coughing-how-do-you-help#post-471376 Sun, 30 Dec 2012 20:37:51 +0000 Boogs 471376@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just use the humidifier and vicks. Our ped said that's mostly all we can do as long as it's a regular cough. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coughing-how-do-you-help#post-471358 Sun, 30 Dec 2012 20:20:37 +0000 BananaPancakes 471358@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@StbHisMrs: Good luck. And I'm not sure if she's actually sick or just has a cough, but my son gets a terrible cough when he's teething because of the extra saliva. But my ped insists on the cool mist over the warm mist for kids, so that's what we use for him. Hope she feels better. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coughing-how-do-you-help#post-471324 Sun, 30 Dec 2012 19:44:02 +0000 StbHisMrs 471324@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bree72: Thank You, looks like we're taking a drive to go get some! I have a vicks humidifier but it doesn't steam, I'll be looking at those too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coughing-how-do-you-help#post-471312 Sun, 30 Dec 2012 19:22:27 +0000 BananaPancakes 471312@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hylands makes a natural cough syrup. Try vicks on the feet with socks, as well. Other than that, lots of time in a steamy shower. A cool mist humidifier is a must. We keep one going when the heat is on, or he seems to develop a cough. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coughing-how-do-you-help#post-471308 Sun, 30 Dec 2012 19:14:31 +0000 StbHisMrs 471308@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can't find anything to give her that's suitable for a child under 4. Currently I'm using a humidifier, although it doesn't steam it blows cold air, and baby vicks on her chest. It isn't helping!!! </p>
