Baby’s sleep pattern while sick

Jasmine

It’s kind of late where I’m at so I can’t call my daughters doctor until the morning but if anyone could help me out now that’d be awesome! Thanks in advance.

So my daughter is 8 months old and she had the flu last month. Well now she’s sick again (runny nose, cough, no fever) and she’s just been wanting to sleep all day. She had a nap earlier and now she’s been sleeping since 6:30 pm and it’s 9:15 and she’s still passed out. I don’t want to wake her if she’s sick. Do you let your babies sleep as much as they want while their sick or do you wake them? She had her cold medicine before she laid down.
