So, we have an awful flu bug going through our family - 5 of us have it now
My littlest baby, almost 7 weeks old, spent yesterday in the children's hospital because of it. We are confirmed flu B positive. it's a nightmare. With her, I am just nursing a lot, and topping her off with some defrosted colostrum. I actually bought some infant Tylenol, at the dr's recommendation, but I haven't opened it yet. I don't really want to give it to her.
Anyways, any natural remedies and symptom relief you can share would be so appreciated.
Here's what I am doing so far:
Vit c & zinc supplements
Colloidal silver
Hot tea w honey, lemon
(None of that for the baby lol)
Cool mist humidifier with vinegar and essential oils (eucalyptus and lemon)
Oil diffuser with thieves oil
Eucalyptus oil with carrier oil, rubbing on feet and chest for cough/congestion
Lots of hot steamy showers
What else can I do?
