And the Pedi said she thought the top teeth would be coming before the bottom ones. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/runny-nose-2#post-1226834 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 12:26:01 +0000 Beehive 1226834@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Crisark: I'm definitely not an expert at all, that's just what happened when my LO got his top two teeth! He never had a fever though, just the runny nose. And actually he has an ear infection now, so maybe not everything is teething... oh well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/runny-nose-2#post-1226782 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 12:09:25 +0000 Crisark 1226782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlecasita1122: @Beehive: Omg this 'cold like' crap is linked to my suspected teething??????<br /> Anna had a fever sat into Sunday, nothing Monday but then developed runny nose and some congestion yesterday and hasn't slept worth a crap. I swear she's teething. 7 1/2 months and no teeth yet.<br /> I'm buying a nosefrida, boogie wipes and baby vicks on my lunch break because we have to sleep lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/runny-nose-2#post-1226669 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 11:28:10 +0000 Alivoo01 1226669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS only tolerates the nosefrida after baths, but doesn't mind the bulb any other time. We also use boogie wipes. </p> <p>Anyone else find the boogie wipe sheets massive?! I had DH cut them in half for us bc using a whole sheet is so wasteful since we don't actually use the entire sheet!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/runny-nose-2#post-1226638 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 11:19:14 +0000 cascademom 1226638@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nosefrida, boogie wipes, and baths. During one of LO's bath recently, he managed to clean his nose better than I have lately. He got two boogers out during the bath alone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/runny-nose-2#post-1226619 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 11:11:02 +0000 autumnlove 1226619@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It just takes time. I hope he feels better soon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/runny-nose-2#post-1226568 Tue, 19 Nov 2013 10:54:57 +0000 regberadaisy 1226568@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jump Rope: Bahahaha how dare you steal her boogers!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/runny-nose-2#post-1225524 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 21:51:37 +0000 Sammyfab 1225524@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're dealing with a constant runny nose over here too! While I love getting all of the gunk out with the NoseFrida (which he hates!), I find his nose runs way more right after snot sucking.</p> <p>I just use really soft toilet paper to constantly wipe his nose. Every time I have to wipe, I tell him what I'm doing and he tolerates it pretty well. My son actually dislikes it more when I'm using a wet wipe rather than plain toilet paper. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/runny-nose-2#post-1225379 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 21:05:46 +0000 Mrs. Bee 1225379@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>nosefrida and boogie wipes for us too. not much you can do to stop it, although i've found when they're outside it tends to run less! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/runny-nose-2#post-1225353 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 20:56:54 +0000 Beehive 1225353@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lovehoneybee: Aha, I take it back then. That's a lot of teeth for a little dude! Hopefully he (and his nose) will feel better very soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/runny-nose-2#post-1225345 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 20:55:18 +0000 lovehoneybee 1225345@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Beehive: Oh I sure hope it isn't teething! He already has 16, and we're supposed to be in the clear for a while (and his pedi didn't see/feel any last week). He's had a cold for two weeks, and has swung between being congested and having a really runny nose...this is just a really really runny day, apparently. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/runny-nose-2#post-1225338 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 20:53:02 +0000 Beehive 1225338@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sounds like teething. We have the same thing right now... we just boogie wipe and use the saline spray (not sure if that helps, but it doesn't hurt, so why not). We nose frieda only when necessary since he haaaaaaaates it. Last time the faucet stopped as soon as his top teeth came through. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/runny-nose-2#post-1225330 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 20:50:27 +0000 littlecasita1122 1225330@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh my LO's runny nose finally went away after 2 1/2 weeks of teething. Only thing that somewhat helped was to use a very soft burp cloth instead of tissues to wipe and to re-apply aquaphor on his cheeks and under his nose a few times each day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/runny-nose-2#post-1225297 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 20:38:35 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1225297@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@locavore_mama: same. She tells me "nooooo!!! CHLOES BOOGERS!!!"</p> <p>touché. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/runny-nose-2#post-1225276 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 20:32:45 +0000 hilsy85 1225276@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The only thing that helps is the nose frida! I also love boogie wipes, because they irritate his skin the least. Also, our pedi told us to put neosporin under his nose bc the constant wiping can lead to broken skin/skin infection. Fun stuff! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/runny-nose-2#post-1225275 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 20:32:12 +0000 lovehoneybee 1225275@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@locavore_mama: Ugh, and I can't believe it's only November. He's pushing two weeks sick now, AND ended up dropping his last nursing session because of it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/runny-nose-2#post-1225267 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 20:29:20 +0000 regberadaisy 1225267@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Same here and she freaks when I wipe the massive boogers off. Gotta love cold season! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/runny-nose-2#post-1225248 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 20:15:22 +0000 lovehoneybee 1225248@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is there anything I can do to stop this? It's been running like a faucet today. Constantly...if I don't rub it off it will keep coming and cover his entire lower face in nose-slime. </p> <p>He won't tolerate the bulb at all (I still try, but it's a lot of screaming and thrashing). He's the opposite of congested, so I'm not sure how well saline spray/steam will help (it hasn't so far). Is there a remedy I'm not thinking of? It's really a ridiculous amount of nose-slime, and he doesn't understand "blow" (and to be honest I'm not sure how much that would help...) Are we just going to have to deal with it until he's over this? </p>
