P is onto his second week of daycare now. First week went ok. We ended up taking him home early the last day of last week so that he could get a decent nap. He was consistently only doing 1 hour of nap at daycare and whining the rest of the nap time. He also started to fake cry during drop-off, but doesn’t resist going to the classroom and is fine when the teacher holds him.
This week has been, well it’s hard to say because….surprise surprise: he’s sick and we haven’t been sending him to daycare. Tbh this might be from school or it might be from me. I came down with something over CNY and he might have gotten it from me. This is his first real cold (runny nose, cough), but he’s been a pretty good trooper about it. Hardest part is that nighttime sleeping has been rougher for him due to the congestion.
We took him to the doc just to confirm there wasn’t anything else than the common cold. Learned that decongestants don’t work well on kids P’s age and that honey is best for his cough.
Tip: I found out that directly taking the honey is better than mixing it in with a liquid.
Overall he’s still himself so we’re not super worried. Just gotta shrug it off.
