My LO is 4 months old and had crazy congestion and coughing induced by drainage. He didn't have a fever so I didn't take him in. The hubby practically forced me to and I'm so glad he did because DS tested positive for RSV!! Like @cmomma17:, we've been co-sleeping the past few weeks just so that I can get some sleep too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teething-sick-or-just-a-good-ol-regression#post-1222632 Sun, 17 Nov 2013 19:57:49 +0000 cmomma17 1222632@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cyan: awww poor baby! A trip to the doctor isn't a bad idea, especially with the cold symptoms and fever.<br /> No great advice here. Sleep for us got rough around 4 months and we ended up co-sleeping. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teething-sick-or-just-a-good-ol-regression#post-1222614 Sun, 17 Nov 2013 19:47:29 +0000 cyan 1222614@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hmmm... to the doctor we will go then! I guess I just didn't want to be "that" parent if this was just typical 4-month sleep regression stuff.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teething-sick-or-just-a-good-ol-regression#post-1222177 Sun, 17 Nov 2013 14:52:58 +0000 Thenetexan 1222177@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ear infections really disrupt sleep. A cold could turn into an ear infection. It might be worthwhile to take her in to have her ears checked. The doc can also look in their mouth to see if teething is an issue. It could also just be the congestion disrupting her sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/teething-sick-or-just-a-good-ol-regression#post-1222060 Sun, 17 Nov 2013 12:58:56 +0000 cyan 1222060@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hello from a long-time lurker :happy: </p> <p>My daughter is almost 5 months old, and we have hit a rough patch with her sleep. We just transitioned her out of her Rock 'n' Play into a bassinet courtesy of the Magic Sleepsuit. Overall, she is not a fan of being flat on her back, but that's probably another post...</p> <p>This week, though, things have taken quite the turn... we went from getting an 8 hour stretch, followed by another 3 hours to constant restless, screaming, shrieking, back-arching nights. We get maybe 30-60 minutes per stretch of sleep.</p> <p>She has had a low-grade fever the past few days, along with congestion and coughing. No obvious signs of teething, though, so I'm inclined to think that she has a cold. She has gone from being a voracious eater to pulling away and screaming every minute or two (nothing has changed about the way that we feed her. She is EBF with pumped bottles during the day)... I just don't know how to help her at this point. I hate seeing her so miserable and mama and daddy need some sleep!</p> <p>Thoughts? Tips? Tricks? </p>
