Mommy Adventures: Sick Baby

We have had our first "sick" visit to the doctor this week. 
Harrison has been congested since he was born it seems, our pediatrician says it's inevitable because of the time of the year he was born and the constant change in weather. 
Sunday he started having a cough along with his congestion and would cough and cough until he choked and spit up. It scared me to death! So, first thing Monday morning we went to the doctor! He checked Harrison top to bottom and concluded that it was nothing more than a head cold and the reason he was choking and coughing was because of the nasal drainage from the head cold. We believed him for about 2 days and when Harrison wasn't any better by Wednesday we went back again just to be sure ;) Yes, we are new parents! Same diagnosis on Wednesday.  Since it's not a bacterial infection there is no medication we can give him  but I was determined to find some way to help him feel better!
This seems to help!
I like it because it smells like Vick's Vapor rub ;)
3 cap fulls in a nice warm bath in a steamy bathroom breaks all the congestion loose!

Harrison likes it because it makes bubbles!
I strongly recommend this to all mommies! 
With this, and a lot of cuddles, our sweet Harrison will be better than ever in no time!
