They were always coughing and sneezing I thought for the longest time they just had a on going cold. A friend of mine told me I should try <a href="http://www.kiwidrug.com/search/flonase/" rel="nofollow">Flonase over the counter</a>. A dosage lasted them approximately 12 hours. So there was no more trying to down that nasty cough syrup every 4-6 hours making it much more convenient to take. For my 2 youngest children they both suffer form allergies.

Hopefully little C will be doing better soon - it's the drag with starting childcare - they seem to get all the diseases at once! I know, it really works!

I had to pick him up from child care on Wednesday when he had a fever. He hasn't been sleeping well because he's been so congested and then last night I suddenly remembered - the onion!!! So at 1am I put it on his night stand and he eventually fell asleep again. Thanks Esther! Little C has had a cold for the past couple of days.

And yes, garlic seems to work too... Maybe the two should be combined? Ginger/garlic tea with honey and lemon?? Of course elderberry cordial is the best ward against colds to start with!

We also use ginger tea - peel/cut a 2 inch piece of ginger in 4 c. water, boil, reduce to simmer for 15-20 minutes and add honey and lemon if you like. It's also fairly effective, but of course, my toddler wants none of it! This comes just in time – the whole family has a nasty head cold!

Whenever I feel a chest cold coming on I crush one clove of garlic into a mug, add hot water, slice of lemon and a teaspoon of honey. They say to drink that at least three times a day but I do it more. You get some STRONG garlic breath but it REALLY works and kicks the bug in the bum!
