DS just got another stuffy nose and phlegmy cough. He's miserable especially at night. Do you limit the amount of milk and dairy when DC has a cold and/or cough? Do you notice a difference when you limit it?

no only bc he loves milk and it makes him calm and happy. I know dairy is not good for a congested child but he wants it most of all when he is sick. I won't give him yogurt or cheese tho

I don't really have to only because when my DD is sick she seems to limit herself. She tends to not be as interested in her milk when she isn't feeling well.

Lately I have been limiting milk when my DC get colds. I really don't like giving them juice, but recently when they are sick I give them very diluted apple juice.

No. I have been told by many doctors that this is a myth.
