She has been coughing mainly at night for the last 3 days, and the congestion gets worse at night. We have been using saline drops and an aspirator and seems to be working well. during the day she gets a little congested, but not as bad as at night. She also is not eating quite as much, and has been spitting up a bit more.


Answer
Your baby might have a case of the cold or bronchitis.

For babies, the common cold can be just that? Common, as the immune system is still developing. When a cold spreads down to the lungs, it may cause bronchitis. There are degrees of baby bronchitis that range from very mild with no fever to more severe cases. Usually, if your baby has bronchitis, he has a cough. He may also be short of breath or you may hear squeaky noises as he breathes. If your baby is having difficulty breathing or has a fever and seems sick, call your pediatrician.

Bronchitis in an infant can be more serious than in a toddler. Therefore, if your infant has a cough, he should always be seen by your pediatrician (even if your infant doesn't have a fever).

Although baby bronchitis can seem a little scary, don't let it upset you. With proper treatment and your loving care, your baby will return to feeling healthy in no time.


Here is a lot you can do for a cough at home:

For mild coughs, use cough drops or cough Medications. In cough and cold medications, there is either a "cough suppressant" to reduce the cough or a "cough expectorant" to thin thick phlegm. Some medications contain both a cough suppressant and an expectorant. Generally, medications containing a cough suppressant should be avoided if you are coughing up phlegm.

An example of the most common cough suppressant in over the counter Robitussin DM. Do not try to suppress coughs that produce mucus and phlegm. Cough suppressants are best used in the late stages of a respiratory infection when the cough is dry and hacking.

To loosen and cough up thick phlegm, try using a cough medication like plain Robitussin.

If she's having coughing spasms, give plenty of warm fluids and inhaled warm mist. The reason is that both relax the airway and loosen up the phlegm.


Give plenty of liquids (6-8 glasses of water daily). If the air in your home is dry, use a humidifier. in the room. Smoking or being exposed to smoke makes coughs much worse. It's safe to give Liquid Motrin for a baby. Or you can use allergy and cold liquid syrup so the baby can sleep at night without the paroxysmal coughing; as she needs the rest.



Viral bronchitis causes a cough that lasts 1 to 3 weeks. Sometimes you may cough up lots of phlegm. The mucus can normally be white, gray, yellow or green. Be sure to call your doctor if your baby's cough lasts more than 3 weeks.

Why isn't my sim showing that she's pregnant?







One of my female adult sims is pregnant, but it's two days later now and she has no visible sign of a bump. She isn't even wearing maternity clothes. I know 100% she's pregnant because the little noise happened and when the option "Try for baby" isn't available. Why isn't she pregnant? What can I do? I can't even try for another baby because the option isn't avaialble.


Answer
Yea, it's probably just a glitch, I know that glitch is somewhat common. It can also be a problem caused by custom content sometimes too though.

Hopefully one of the first three answerers helped you, if not then try this instead:

boolprop testingcheatsenabled true (in the lot or out, it won't matter in this case)

Shift-click on her and then find the option to Force Error. Click on that and now you'll see three more options. Cancel, Reset or Delete. Click on Reset.

Now open the cheat box back up and type:

boolprop testingcheatsenabled false

If even that doesn't fix her, then you may need to try to figure out if you might have some custom content that is causing a problem with her. Especially look for any custom skins as sometimes those skins won't "show" the pregnancy even though the sim should be showing.

Oh, and some custom clothing doesn't have a "pregnancy" state either so if she's wearing custom clothing that may also prevent the pregnancy from showing. Just depends on how the creator made the clothing.

Hi Melethana! We must have both been answering at almost the same time. :D

2nd eta -- yea, you're right again, Melethana. Mine do to. But one time I invited another playable (very pregnant) sim to a wedding and she showed up in Formal wear and didn't look at all pregnant. After the wedding was over I went into that sims' house and she was still very definitely pregnant. So I just thought that maybe cc clothing made a difference. Sorry about that. Oh, but I just downloaded Squinge's Pregnant Wear Anything hack and with that hack, you have to make sure that the cc clothing comes with a Pregnancy Morph mesh or they won't actually look pregnant I guess.
