We are again sleep deprived and a little panicked. Took the boy to the pediatrician, who listened politely to our concerns. And with a completely straight face told us that a teaspoon of honey has been shown to be more effective than medication for toddlers with colds at night, and sent us home.
Just a cold. An ordinary toddler cold. Go home to your sleepless, coughing boy, and rest in normalcy.
I suppose it's just as well, seeing that I'm too uncomfortable to sleep much anyway.
