My co-worker/friend told me that she gives her son probiotics and her son hasn't been nearly as sick as Petie has been since attending daycare. Her son goes to the same daycare as Petie and is in his "sister" room. So I bought some - I bough L.Reuteri based on an article I read but all probiotics showed improvement in immunity based on this article (and Sara's doctor said they all help). 2 weeks now without being sick (knock on wood). Well . . . he does have a little bit of a snotty nose but it isn't as bad as it used to be. And he did have a 100.7 temp under the arm last night and was tugging at his ears so we took him in today to make sure he didn't have another ear infection . . . he doesn't . . . clean bill of health. He might be fighting something . . . maybe fighting 3 teeth cutting . . . but still a healthy baby. Thank goodness.
I guess it could be the nicer weather . . . but I am still a probiotic believer now!
Hooray for Probiotics. I am grateful that Petie is getting over his sickines.
ReplyDeleteI used to use probiotics with Gav a lot too. After a while I just couldn't take seeing him get sick from both ends. I used Florastor for kids. Knock on wood but A has done very well not being sick, I do feed her organic baby yogurt with that healthy bacteria.
ReplyDeleteHOORAY for Petie feeling better =)
And he is sick . . . stayed home today and will stay home tomorrow with Mimi. Well two weeks was still a record!
ReplyDeleteI Hope Petie has finally recovered from the sickies.
ReplyDeleteTurns out sickes was double ear infection . . . Mike and I feel like horrible parents. We took him in last Saturday after he slept for 15 hours straight and skipped dinner (very unusual for blood and married Olmis)! If he can't kick these ear infections the doctors are talking tubes b/c they said three back to back ear infections are a pretty bad sign! Pray that Petie can kick it!
ReplyDeleteOH NO. I hope dear Pickle has kicked the ear infection habit.....Sinus infections run in the olmi family, but not ear infections. His tooth count is looking quite sterling.... Give him a kiss for me. He has his 1 year birthday coming up. I will be cheering him on!
ReplyDeleteNew post pls. Perhaps a few pics of in progress backyard? Or even just upload new pics of my hansom nephew...
