  • How can I help my child's cough at night?

    Cough can be very distressing for a child (and their sleepless parent!), but can generally be managed with simple home remedies. Use of a humidifier or steam bath loosens up the mucous, making it easier to manage. If the child is old enough, cough drops can help soothe an itchy throat that may be the cause of the cough. Children over 1 can take a tablespoon of honey. Remember that cough is a response to an illness, not the illness itself. If a child is coughing, but is breathing well, they are simply moving excess mucous from their respiratory tract. READ MORE

  • How can you tell if your child has the flu?

If a child is very sick (unable to take fluids, fever over 5 days, decreased urination), seek medical attention immediately READ MORE
