Dealing with Sickness (aka “I’m Sick of This!”)

Being sick sucks. Having sick kids sucks too. Being sick while you have sick kids? That's when you find yourself asking why you got into this whole parenting thing to begin with. This week, we're talking about dealing with kid sickness. We've experienced quite a bit with sickness in the past four years and have figured out quite a few tips we're sharing with you this week. But, it's not just us and our tips, a number of our listeners contributed to these tips to deal with sickness! Tips such as:

  1. Make a Chart (and Keep Your Charts!)

  2. Keep Notes!

  3. Steamy Showers and Long Baths

  4. Humidifiers and Diffusers

  5. Shut it Down!

  6. No Shoes

  7. Let Them Sleep!

  8. Mask Up

Not only that, but we share a list of our favorite products that help make the whole sickness thing a little more bearable. And, as always, Parenting Wins!
