6 weeks old and already has a cold ?

Question

She gets breastmilk so I wasn’t expecting her to get sick so soon. Has anyone else experienced this
She has a stuffed up nose. Snore clear. Had trouble sleeping at night and not as hungry
I don’t know if I should wake her up when she sleeps past her bottle

Answer

Mine had one at 6 weeks, I just made sure his nose was clear and used a humidifier. Doc said dehydration is the biggest issue if baby can’t eat well but if baby is still eating and having plenty of wet diapers then all should be good!

Answer

My doctor said don’t go past 4 hours without a feed

Answer

Mine is 7 weeks and already picked up a cold, in assuming from daycare, which she started on Monday. Stuffed nose and a little cough. Poor babies! Mine breastfed as well, hoping it helps her recover quickly.

Answer

My son brought home a bug and after a couple weeks my little girl got it. At first it was just a cold and occasional dry cough. For that, I used saline and the nose Frida before every feeding so she could breathe easier. After a couple days her cough turned wet and she got a fever so we went to the ER. After tons of lab work, cultures, and 2 unsuccessful spinal taps 😔 they found she had 2 separate viruses. Basically they said it'll go away with time, but to keep using saline and clearing her nose out before feedings. It has been 1 week since the ER visit and her cold/cough is almost all gone. Hope your LO feels better soon!

Answer

If she is not dehydrated let her sleep longer. 
Check her diaper .
