Helpless

The last 4 days my baby boy has just had times that he has not been himself. Being a new parent it is hard to know whether or not to take him to the doctor. When I became a mommy and when I first felt my son kick inside the womb for the first time it was the most incredible feeling in the world. However I never wanted to be this parent that took my child to the dr every time he sneezed. Are we taking him to the doctor too much? Probably not, we are just looking out what is best for him. However, we found it was nothing but a common cold. So what can do for him, sure we can use the Vics vapor rub, but yet still he cries as a mommy I feel so helpless for my son. I know that it will get better but at times I just feel so helpless.
