If he is congested use a humidifier, if you dont have one take him in the bathroom with the door shut and turn on the hot water. The room will fill up with humidity.. If he is just runny nosed use the bulb nose sucker thing. It really helps. Good luck!
If he has a stuffy nose (seems like it is worse when he is sleeping) you can use vicks baby rub it is very mild and gentle. Just a bit on his chest under his shirt and a humidifier while he sleeps. You can put some on his feet and put socks on his is feet too. If you don't want to use vicks on him you can rub some on your chest and he can get the vapors from laying next to you. Tylenol will help also every 4 to 6 hours. There is no over the counter cold medicine that you can give them at this young of an age not until the age of 5 or 6 yrs old. Lots of love and hugs too. Soon he will start feeling better.Poor little guy. My girls both got sick at about 2 to 3 months old with a cold. Hope he feels better soon.

OH poor buddy! He is so stinking darling even sick. If he is acting like he doesn't feel good keep baby tylenol in him round the clock :)
