Hello,
In today's post I write about Our experience and how we
fight against colds.
I am a mother of two and a half years old girl. She had
never been ill so far that we had to buy antibiotics. As cold begin, we have
already perfected our rituals. Everything we introduced from medication and
time for their use, as well as other specific aids, we counseled at
pediatricians. I also recommend to you that before you give anything to your
children, you should consult your doctor.
Nose leak- biggest pain
My daughter is simply doesnt like when someone is doing
something on her head or her face, especially when she have a cold. So from
this you can conclude that we did not wear straps with bows and caps, so my fight with the nose blowing was very difficult. At each touch when I want
to do something about her nose, there is rebellion, sudden turning of the head,
crying. It was hard to look at, but I have to somehow help the child even
though she is opposed.
Before, we used a hand pump that seemed pretty practical. I
can carry it everywhere with me.
And I thought it was good, -children do not know how to blow their nose so this is going to be okay for starters. And it was. Although with that hand pump,that does not get a lot out of it, but I thought – better that, than nothing. Even today I know to have it in my purse.
Finally, I dared and bought a nose pump that puts it as a continuation on the vacuum cleaner.
I've been against this for a long time.The first reason was
that my girl was afraid of the sound of the vacuum cleaner. While some children
are loveing a"white noise", the sound of a vacuum cleaner or hair
dryer, my child would start crying. The other reason was that I did not want to
consider anything like this because it seemed scary.
I can say today that I was deceiving. In conversation with a
pediatrician and reading the opinions of other moms I bought that continuation
and I was thrilled. As she is older now, this fear of the vacuum cleaner sound
has disappeared in time, and with playing
a cartoons and a songs we can blow her nose. We get rid of it would say
almost everything out, if not all. She sleep all night so nice.
I do not want to think I've made a mistake since I did not
buy that extension before, i just folow my mother's instinct, but I certainly
recommend this type of product in consultation with a pediatrician.
What do you do when your children have a cold?
We want you to have a nice and warm winter, and share your
thoughts and experiences.
