Question Cold Remedies

I know they pulled cold meds for infants off the shelf and the best things are saline nose sprays, cold air humidfiers and just waiting it out. What about baby Vicks rub? It says it will help calm baby, and it has euchalyptis and lavander scent. Is this still ok for babies?

For your baby yes. I think the product says not for children under 6mos. I can't quite remember though. . .so no for young babies but for a 14 mo old I think it's fine.

Also try the pediacare vapor plug ins. I use them and love them. They plug into any outlet. I usually put one in an hour before I go to bed so the room fills up with vapors. You can find them next to the vapor rub... which I used as well.
