One sick little boy.

As a woman seeing someone feeling sick is one thing but as a mother, especially a first time mum it really breaks your heart.

My little man has been getting sick over the last few days ... we thought it was just a cold and it would pass without too much fuss but its now moved to his chest and to see him struggle is so hard. 

Being so little there isn't much you can do for them.  As an adult I hate coughing so imagine how helpless and miserable he feels..

He has never looked so bad, puffy eyes, red face, constantly running nose... He wont take any Panadol, no matter what we try, so when he coughs you can see in his face how sore it is.... my little soldier.

We did try rubbing Vicks baby balm (vapour rub) onto his chest and the soles of his feet, (cause we have read that in a few place that is supposed to help) it did help to sooth him a little so that is one small relief.

Lots of TLC is needed today... endless cuddles when he wants them and sleeping on mummy or daddys chest.

I Hope it passes quickly...so my little funny munchkin comes back.
