I was woundering if anyone could help me. I got well three sick kids they all have had there ful shot. However two of them are really sick. They have been coughing and runing fevers complaining of ears hurting but they have tubs in there one kid eye is all red and the other one eyes have been to wear they been so gunked up that they cant open them. I have tried takeing them to the doctor but they say there fine and only gave the one with asmha an inhealer. There still not doing any better they both dont really seem to sleep so well no matter what I have tried and im just getting so tried. Only getting about two hours asleep a night and just dont know what to do they cry and wine all night and I cant even comfer them they want me but dont and im at my wits end dont know what to do if any one has any ideas or think they can help I would be greatful thanks.

Sounds like ear infections and pink eye. possible upper respritory infection.  TAKE them back. you can go to the peds doc, or an urgent care, or even the ER.  Fevers, and the above symptoms NEED TREATMENT.   good luck and take them back.

Most people don't realize it but fevers in and of themselves do NOT need treatment,and kids can handle fevers that adults could not.Unless the fever is approaching 103 I wouldn't worry about that ALONE.Now,for the gunked up eyes:take a tea bag,let it steep in warm water,and then apply it,as wet as you can (obviously you don't want it soaked;wring it out a little),to their eyes.Then turn the shower on HOT,full force,close the door,let the bathroom steam up,and sit with them in there  for 15-20 minutes several times a day.They will cough more,which you can help by patting their backs,but all of that is good.It means the congestion is breaking up.Try children's motrin at night for fevers and aching.Hope some of this helps.Feel free to message me if you need to.
