Uggg!!
Gavin has somehow gotten a cough. He's still as happy as ever and coos and smiles all the time but if he cries he will start coughing. So sad to hear. I have put a warm mist vaporizer with Vicks baby rub going in the nursery and have been giving him menthol baths and putting baby VIcks on his chest, back, and feet every night.
We don't know how he got sick because we are so careful to screen people that come into the house but any one of us could have brought germs in from outside (Bart from school, me from the hospital etc.) He seems to be doing OK and the others have managed to stay well. We are being very careful about pacifiers, burp clothes, etc. I am spraying down the couches and swings every night with Lysol to keep everyone else healthy (hopefully it works).

Yikes! Sorry Gavin has a cough =(. I hope he gets over it soon and doesn't pass it on to the other two. We are so careful to screen too - that's a big reason the girls aren't in daycare. It's more expensive to have a nanny, but worth it so the girlies don't get exposed to as many things. Germs can still make it in though - if not from you or Bart, from a can of soup from the grocery store or anything else that comes into the house. I'd be a lysoling fool too!
Stay well you guys!
I hope he feels better soon and none of the other babies get his cough!
hope everyone is feeling better and that your LO didn't get his siblings sick!
