The good news is, so far the stomach bug stopped at just two girls. Nursing is the best cure for everything, so my toddler is bouncing right back to good health.
My husband jokes that I could change a flat tire with breast milk. I do think it fixes everything! I just wish I had such a fix for my four year-old.
It’s her first time with a bug like this. She never, I mean really seriously hardly ever, gets sick. So this feeling crumby is kind of foreign to her. She still talks about that “one time” she had a fever. So you can imagine what she has thought about all this throwing up business.
I tried to give her lemon ginger tea with honey to help ease her tummy. Even in the heart shaped mug with a pink straw, it didn’t go over so well.
What do you do to help your little ones feel better when the stomach bug hits?
A bit of good ginger ale usually has helped Xander when he’s had the stomach flu…just in teeny tiny sips at first.
