That's an Upper Respiratory Infection. She's making horrid coughing noises, and her voice is a bit funny, and she keeps blowing her nose. She's put Vicks on her nose which I think is helping her breathe. Dylan says Vicks helps him breathe, so Mummy must know what she's doing. She usually does. She wasn't feeling …
