At Least 3 Things ~1/30/09~

PO3 - My doctor said to have them take one sip only one sip every ten minutes of gatorade/pedialite/plain water. It's having a constant slow intake of fluid that will help keep dehydration away. If they gulp, it'll come back.

I can attest to this.. I left to go to DS12's game today... left DH in charge.. he let DS8 gulp a water bottle full and play BB on a sick stomach.. guess who got sick w/ 3 minutes left in the game...and than DH turns around and is MAD at me! Needless, to say there were some heated words exchanged when we got home and I told him what a dope he is!

So, now I have 2 down.. DD had to go to town w/ me for a shoe fitting for the wedding...

I'm telling you DH is really rubbing my nerves today... we can NOT have any more sn** days....

We refer to it as waterboarding in our house. The initial sensation is wierd, kind of like getting a snort full of salt ocean water up your nostril, but it really works. I have not had a sinus infection since starting the sinus rinse. I wish I had started it long ago. I wouuld have saved a fortune in sick time, doctor bills, prescriptions, etc.

We have the bottle. The allergist gave it to us at our last visit. I just used now. It was just too weird for me to even think about using before. My boys like the taste of salt water residue. I used it first so they could see how it runs out the other side and that I could still breath and talk while it did it. They loved it. They want to know how often we can do it. My DH however thinks we are all insane and there is no way I am coming near his nostrils with that thing. Who doesn't like salt water running out their noses.



Nan - hope the kiddos start feeling better soon!
PO3 - how is Little Man doing now?

I hope all of the kiddos are feeling better!!

We tried the kitchen sink last night for the bath. A little better. Not great, but a little better. He cried some, but not as much, and he was WAY easier to calm down afterwards!! I'll keep y'all posted--thanks for the help and support!!

Deb--I hope everything continues to work out well on the job front!!
