Max and I went to our first Little Gym of Narberth, PA class on Friday and JINX! I did the ultimate mommy NO NO, which is to say that your kid bhas not been sick. I even said to the other moms that I should not be saying this and so I whispered. How funny? Me whispering thinking that the sick GODS would not hear me but they did and he is sick.

He has a runny nose and a cough that sounds like his throat hurts. So, I gave him pulsatilla, a homeopathic remedy for stuffy nose as well as your child not wanting to be put down because he or she is sick (Thanks Daphne Goldberg MD for being trained in homeopathy). I also gave him a warm bottle and lots of hugs. At 12 am, when he had already woken up 4 times and could not get comfy, I brought him into bed. Max just needed some love. At 4 30 am, he was up and it sounded like he was having a tough time clearing his throat. So we got up and went downstairs and drank a bottle and snuggled on the couch.

At 9 am, he went down for a nap. Maybe this is why Max has been so fussy. I am sure he got sick on the plane.

Being a baby must be tough and being a mama watching her baby in pain is even tougher.

remind me NEVER to JINX myself again. Damn Sick GODS!

It has been a while since I wrote about POOP! Max has been having great poops. He has been having little to no problems getting them out. I know you all kn ow the look on your childs face when they turn beet red and they are in pain. I can only imagine what that feels like, especially when I cannot put the pain into words. So what happened??

Well I put Max on a new probiotic made by Garden of Lifehere. A probiotic helps to put good bacteria in our bodies. It can also help to build out immune systems.

Every morning Max now has a great poop and then he is happy and free the rest of the day.

How many times does oyur kid poop a day?
