Colds: Really it is that time already??

So we woke up in the middle of the night to a choking 4 month old. He was having a hard time swallowing all his drainage. Then a 2 year old came into the room at 2 am asking for the boob since he didn't feel good. When morning rolled around I was exhausted and empty and it was obvious both boys had a cold. My husband was also complaining of a cold. So I told him to Netti pot and then take some homeopathic medicine for colds and throat soreness. For the boys I have been giving them the homeopathic Hylands Aconitum Napellus, lots of boob and orange juice as well as chicken soup. Julien is still draining but his mood has been really good and he seems to be dealing with the drainage better. I am very glad I can handle these sicknesses without running to a doctor and using prescription drugs. I am glad my boys still nurse which keeps up their immune system. Now I just have to drink non-stop to keep up with the demand!
