My two year old caught a bug and had a bad night. My niece brought home something from the school and Madison was stuffy all night. Since I am away from home I didn't have the usual vaporizer, vapor rub and such and found my self in Walgreens at 2:00 AM and again at 4:00 AM (I bought the wrong thing the first time). In the end I returned to the remedies my mother used when I was a child, a good old vaporizer, but I was amazed at all the products that are out there for small children. What happened to a cup of chicken soup does the trick? This made me wonder, what are some of the remedies you have heard over the years with your children or just heard people try? Do they work or not? One I have frequently heard is to blow in your child's mouth to push all the mucus out of her nose when it is congested........YUCK, but I have heard it works.
