Sick Baby

[motherofjb]

I just wanna say having a sick baby that has a stuffy nose, cough, and snot running down her lip, with a fever is NOT my ideal weekend. We don't co-sleep but it seems to be the ONLY way she will sleep. I think she is feeling a tad better tonight but is refusing to sleep in her crib. My husband and I have a Full size bed and there just isn't room for 3.
Between our daughter (18 month and 32") laying sideways, her latching then unlatching and crying/fussing, then re latching just isn't that much fun.

:'( going to be a long night. Any suggestions on getting her to sleep?

If it were me, to be perfectly honest I would hope that dh would sleep on the couch while I tended to the sick baby in my bed. My dd is 30 months, fever of 103 right now and barely eating but I'm thanking my lucky stars that she is nursing so much suddenly bc I'm confident she won't have issues w dehydration. When any of my kids get sick, no matter the age, I usually tend to them while they sleep in my bed.
