Runny Nose

Since yesterday morning, Sherry had been sneezing quite a number of times, but we did not suspect anything till the wee hours of Sunday.
She woke up around 3am and started to cry and sneeze at the same time. She did not want to go back to sleep and just want to be held in my arms. I knew something is not right and the next thing we saw was the mucus flowing out from her little nose. We immediately switched the air-con to fan mode.
She refused to go to bed till around 6am. I was dead tired by then! She just wanted to follow wherever she goes (even to find MIL). She was unable to sleep peaceful as she is not used to sleep in a non air-con room. She must have been feeling so warm and this silly Mummy should have removed her long sleeve shirt. Hai…
Come morning, she woke up around 9am and did not show the slightest sign of being sick, she still able to run about like normal and even play like normal except that sneezing and the mucus part and did not have much appetite.
We had some medication but did not want to give her as we were thinking of letting her fight the bug on her own, sort of building up her immune system (this time, my Hubby really surprised me by saying this). We had to cancel all our plans of going shopping to confine her in the home to fight the bug…
She seems to be feeling better in the night but we just need to monitor her condition closely. We still turn on the air-con but at a higher temperature so that she can sleep peacefully throughout the night.
