It's miserable :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-too-long#post-1426461 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 15:17:29 +0000 autumnlove 1426461@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NurseMommy: hope she feels better! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-too-long#post-1426262 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 12:08:09 +0000 NurseMommy 1426262@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: yep, just got them yesterday. Much better than Kleenex! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-too-long#post-1426248 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 11:49:50 +0000 Weagle 1426248@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NurseMommy: I know. It's hard to see them sick. Every time LO is sick I get ragey thinking, "What kind of country is this that we don't have a cure for the common cold?!?!" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-too-long#post-1426240 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 11:44:02 +0000 T.H.O.U. 1426240@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NurseMommy: yes that struggle is horrible! Do you have good boogie wipes? Those were the best for extended nose wiping. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-too-long#post-1426233 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 11:33:39 +0000 NurseMommy 1426233@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Weagle: it's funny, as a nurse, in my head, I KNOW this. "It's a cold, they can't do anything." As a FTM I'm just like "my baby doesn't feeeeeeel welllllll! Please fix her!!" Lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-too-long#post-1426197 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 10:57:48 +0000 Weagle 1426197@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually a couple of weeks. There's not much a doctor can do for a cold, so we never take her in unless it seems to be settling in her chest or turning into an ear infection. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-too-long#post-1426188 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 10:52:25 +0000 woodentulip 1426188@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are on our 3rd week of a faucet nose and slight (but rattle-like) cough. It isn't getting worse, so I am not worried yet, just annoyed at the nose dripping so much and hurting her now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-too-long#post-1426177 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 10:45:24 +0000 T.H.O.U. 1426177@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yea usually after 2-3 weeks we went to the doctor to make sure nothing was settling in her chest but some lingered for about 6 weeks before going away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-too-long#post-1426176 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 10:44:08 +0000 NurseMommy 1426176@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: ugh. Seriously? That seems like forever. :sad: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-too-long#post-1426139 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 10:14:36 +0000 autumnlove 1426139@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually 2-3 weeks for us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-is-too-long#post-1426134 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 10:09:22 +0000 NurseMommy 1426134@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My almost nine month old dd has had a wicked runny nose, slight cough, sneezing for six days now. I know it's a cold, but this being her first one, don't know how long these things last with babies. She has a pediatrician appointment on Thursday for her well baby checkup. I'm not being neglectful by waiting until then for her to see him, am I? How long do your LOs colds last? </p>
