Help for Our Lingering Winter Colds and Allergies
Every night we turn on our two Vicks warm mist humidifiers for the boys' rooms (they are actually the only brand warm mist humidifier you can find at our local Walmart). I am so thankful that Vicks has found it important enough to provide warm mist humidifiers in stores full of cool mist! They just work better for our family. Graham's humidifier is filled with the VapoSteam and Davis gets a rub down with the Vicks BabyRub every night. The BabyRub is something new we started this week and it has helped Davis go from waking about 3 times a night to sleeping through the night. I truly think he was mostly upset with not being able to breathe! His combination of teething and allergies were really making him uncomfortable.
If you love the way Vicks works but do not like the greasy feel, you should know that they now have a VapoRub Topical Cream that provides the same relief without the grease! This is great for kids and adults 2 and over so we use this particular version on Graham.
If you are on Facebook you should check out the new Vicks VapoRub page that gives handy tips and tricks for dealing with colds and cold symptoms.
I was not compensated for posting about the Vicks brand. I did receive an iPad in order to experience the new VapoRub Facebook page and the power of touch. These are my honest opinions on the product. I do not post reviews on products I can not stand behind. Please see my Terms of Use for more info.

Oh goodness we've been sick a lot too. My sister {the one that is prego} has been sick her entire pregnancy I swear. Whatever they have, we get. Mica was on a Nebulizer for Bronchitis; plus he had an ear infection. Then Isaak had a double ear infection. Two sets of antibiotics. Mica got done with his Nebulizer and he still had a cough for a few weeks. I was sick two or three times. Now Isaak and I have something again. I'm sure allergies are part of the blame this time!
Vicks really works or not. Isaak LOVES it. I rub it on his chest every time he has trouble breathing. If it makes him happy, I'm all for it!
