For me, normally I would take sodium ascorbate (vit c) to bowel tolerance and take a tincture containing echinacea, goldenseal, eyebright, nettles and yarrow to tackle the brewing sinus infection. Is this still okay to do? I'm most concerned about the Vit C and knowing when he's gotten enough/too much through my milk. He had a massive huge blow out a couple hrs ago and I wonder if that was normal or him hitting BT? His congestion seems to be a bit better since (but we also had to take a shower to clean up, it was that bad, so the steam could have helped).
And for him? He can still nurse okay, during the night after he'd been sleeping for a couple hrs he was more stuffy. Breastmilk up the nose? Bulb syringe? Any essential oils safe? (for putting in the steam of the shower or something, not on his skin).
