    1. Don't apply Vicks..Itz not safe till 1ys
    2. Don't give him curd it causes cough
    3. Basil+honey + ginger is best for this situation
    4.give him warm oil massage before he go to bed

    TL...probably someone mentioned already, when was the last time AC filter was cleaned? If its been a while, get that cleaned. I think it depends on the model but older units needed to be cleaned. Maybe some dust is accumulated there spreading the whole room.

    Hello All,
    DS is fine now. He is now ready to live with slight cough and runny nose. Sigh!
    He is not taking any medications and is sleeping well despite all.
    I guess Bangalore weather is the root cause.

    CHotabheem: We just received the humidifer and its operational only for past 2 days. Will update if things change.
    Rakhi: AC filter was cleaned this month itself, when we had it reinstalled. Anyway, we have not been switching on the AC at all. I am scared despite the fact that it is unberably hot sometimes at night. I do not want to aggravate things.

    On the flip side, I have been wheezing a lot and running out of breath early mornings between 3 and 5 am so I am sleep deprived. My cough is worsening. Going for an xray today to see if lungs are infected or whether it is bronchitis/asthma.
