This has to be the millionth time that I’ve been sick this year. I woke up and it felt like a tractor trailor ran over my head. It seemed like my throat was going to explode, my body ached, and I could hardly breath through my nose. After stumbling to the bathroom to get the thermometer, I took my temperature. This is what it read:
And take a look at the culprit:
She may look cute and sweet, but she carries a lot of germs. Where does she get it from? Daycare, of course! I always knew that daycare centers are like germ fests, but jeez louise! Being sick has become the norm in our house. It’s a continious cycle. I went to the doctor and he said that this virus will go away on its own, without prescription meds. So, I’ve been taking tylenol and vitamins. I’ve also been taking advantage of home remedies like tea with honey and lemon, gargling with warm salt water, and using saline nasel spay. Despite her mama being sick, my little Princess is her usual happy self.
Please share your ideas! I can use all the help I can get!
you have a sore throat? try a cayenne pepper soup or add a bit of it to tea. Literally 1/4 of a teaspoonful. Also, I make tea out of apple cider vinegar and honey (raw is best).
I’ll try that tonight! Thanks for the tip!
Aww, I hope you get better! Remember to keep yourself hydrated.
Sorry to hear you are feeling awful! When it’s school time, I am always sick. 2 kids in preschool never helps! Gargling with salt water is the best for a sore throat. And I take oil of oregano whenever I feel a cold coming on…it works every time!
Thanks Cookn’ Mom! FamilyFoodFitnessFun, is oil of oregano a pill! Gatta get it! Thanks!
Boy am I late but next time try some bush tea 🙂
Never too late!! I’ll give bush tea a try next time! Thanks team Jacob!
