Have you taken her to the doctor?
My friends daughter is in the E.R. now, due to a fever. When I left the E.R. they were talking about doing a spinal tap on her. ↑ |

| Im sorry to hear that mia is not feeling well!! Have you given her any medicine? Mabey put her in the bathroom with alot of steam i think thats for chest congestion, dont quote me on that. Well i hope she feels better soon, i know i hate it when my kids are sick i always feel so helpless. ↑ |

| Mabey you should take her to the doctor, but they will probably just give her some more medicine, at least she doesnt have a fever anymore. Well goodluck to you two, i hope she feels well soon. ↑ |

I agree with Mellisa, Id putting a vapourizer in the room with her or something
Make sure you keep giving her sips of water, dont let her dehydrate ↑ |

| If the cough is bothersome take her to the doctor and ask for an inhaler to be prescribed - Salbutamol usually gets rid of post-viral coughs pretty well. ↑ |
