Good morning.

I would be a whole lot easier for me to share my OTC preferences if I cuold get Jax to take some of them. Criminy, but the child is stubborn.

Have you tried any of the new chewables that are out? I told the boys they were "candy medicine" and they fell for it hook, line, and sinker.

Unfortunately, they don't really seem to work very well!

A heavy slathering of good old fashioned Vicks Vapor rub does help control nighttime coughing.

I have to practically hold down my older son JJ to give him meds. I'm just thankful that now he's old enough for chewables-lot less messy.

Robbie, on the other hand, is like 'I need medicine mama' and drinks it from the dosage cup by himself.

I've found that the Triaminic Vapor Patch works for my kids coughs. Just make sure you put it on their chest AFTER they fall asleep cause otherwise they'll just rip it off and play with it *L*

Ahh, you aren't alone. Mine despise medicine and would rather feel cruddy instead of take medicine.
