He still got it :(
Despite the masks we all wore (I even slept with mine on!), despite our hands being basically raw from the amount of times we were washing them, and despite every other thing we were doing to prevent it... he got sick anyway. 8 weeks old; positive for the flu. Please say a prayer that my little guy gets through this quickly!

Prayers out! That's so scary when they're that little.

Oh no prayers he recovers quickly ❤
Lots of saline nose drops to help with any congestion.

Lots of skin to skin and nursing.
When my dd is sick I go topless and put her in just a diaper. And I just hold her as much as she wants.

When baby and I have an illness, I am diligent to take lots of immune-boosting vitamins and then do nothing but nurse, nurse, nurse (and cuddle).
The breastmilk is the best medicine, of course, and the vitamins that pass through it will benefit baby as well as myself.

Lukewarm baths can help control temperature too. Hold LO in bathroom with a steamy shower going to help clear nasal passages, then suck the extra out with Nose Frida! It sounds really gross but it does wonders to help them breathe easier. Use the humidifier 24/7 too

Prayer said! I'm so sorry! It's so tough. We just went through this two weeks ago. I pray for a quick recovery!
