I am an EMT and I know what I am talking about. You need to be careful with such a small baby. The suction bulb works well and humidifiying the room. If the baby ever gets the croup you can bundle the baby and walk outside- the cool air helps them breath better. If you have an eye cold - is it red around the whites of the eye? Does your eye stick together? It can be conjunctivitis - Pink eye. You can get eye drops from the doctor and apply it twice a day for one week. good luck.
