I think my 7-week-old may have a cold. I got sick on Saturday and still have something, it started as just a sore throat, but then came coughing, congestion and sinus pressure.

Yesterday my LO was taking frequent naps, nursing quite a bit more than usual, and actually slept from 8pm-8:30am waking up only twice to nurse. Very unlike him. Then this morning he sounded a little congested, he'd kind of cough then choke a little, and he nose was very congested. I took him in the shower with me and it seemed to help quite a bit.

But now, he's been napping for nearly three hours, and hasn't eaten in 3.5, which is stretching it for his age. Do I let him sleep because I think he's sick, or do I wake him?
