I use karvol. I put a few drops on a tissue and leave it beside her cot. You can get plug ins too I think. I also put a pillow/cushion under her cot mattress to tilt it up a bit, so she isnt sleeping totally flat.

Calpol I dont think goes a miss either when they miserable, you can use it with the drps. I never used the drops personally, dont think Caity ever been totally bunged plus I heard that there isnt much more in them than water so can be a bit of a waste of money, hoep he feeling better soon. x

Other than what you have done I can't think of anything else!

TBH most cold and flu remedies do little. Best thing for a cold is paracetamol and fluids, anything is only to provide a modicum of comfort
