When You Have A Sick Baby

Nothing is worse than a sick baby! With cold and flu season at its peak, it’s so hard to keep these little ones healthy. Not to mention, babies can’t get vaccinated with the flu shot until they are six months old!

We are in the middle of battling a nasty cold over here!

Below is a list of a few items I found very useful for Jax thus far:
