Help for 20 month old

I am looking for something to give my daughter who is 20 months old. She has had a cold with runny nose and cough for almost 2 weeks.

She has a stuffy nose at night and is restless in her sleep. During the day, mostly in the morning after waking has a runny nose, thick yellowish, green discharge.

Her cough is more noticeable during the day right now. It seems like it is bringing something up--or trying to at least.

Rosy cheeks. No fever.

She is mostly happy during the day. She seems to be taking more naps since she's been sick.

It is very cold here and we keep warm clothes on her.

Seems to be eating well. She may be getting better, I realize, as I write this, but just want to get rid of the runny nose and cough.

Try pulsatilla 6c every couple of hours for one day and make note here of symptom changes.

Hi samnbudsmom, thanks for your reply. I gave her one dose last night after I got your reply. She coughed a little more last night, but now this morning she shows no symptoms--no runny nose or coughing. Should I continue the pulsatilla or wait until I see symptoms again?

She started coughing again this afternoon, so I gave her more pulsatilla.

Is her cough the same or different? Is she coughing up anything? Any other symptoms? If the cough is the same but less often I would continue giving the pulsatilla until changes occur or symptoms go away. Glad to hear she's feeling better.
