1. If you lived close to me...
I'd say, "Y'all come on over." Nothing is more miserable than having a baby who can't sleep because of the heat. Do you have a fan? Might be worth a trip to Hell-Mart to buy one. :shrug:

Sorry about your predicament. :(

works for me on the hot days here in Texas; you can get a rotating one cheap and set it up near the baby

5. Done.
But it's mostly just blowing warm air around, y'know. Baby is starting to peter out, but I'm now wide awake.

8. how bad is the humidity and how old is the baby?
The lower the humidity the more a wet washcloth on the forehead with the blowing fan will help. The older the kid the less you have to worry about suffocation with a washcloth (Warning: I am a 20-something male with ZERO experience in childcare, so take my recommendations lightly)
