What helps a toddler with a cold?

What has been helping your toddler with their cold? My 2yr old is taking cold medicine, vapor rub at night, and plenty of fluids. She has a runny nose and cough that tends to make her gag. I have a vapor mist going in her room tonight. Anything else I can be doing?

Vapor mist can sometimes make it worse and they end up with pneumonia. Our pediatrician told us to buy the waterless vapor machine. It’s like $15 at Walmart and comes with 5 pads. They last about 8 hours and definitely help my kids! You can also try tiny cold tablets found in the infant section!

Fresh cut oranges :tangerine::tangerine: give them to her… I know you’re probably going to be like whhaaat​:woman_shrugging:t2:but it works for me
