When my son was about 4 I started giving him a natural product called RespirActin (www.respiractin.com) and I swear by it. I give him 1 tbsp every morning and he NEVER has a cold or cough. It's made here in Canada, but I'm sure that they ship worldwide. Now I never worry about colds and respiratory problems. Not sure if your baby is old enough to take it, but I'm sure that you can find out on their website.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11532061575967343714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8608138282829733110.post-23786376199798692792010-11-30T17:39:03.867+01:002010-11-30T17:39:03.867+01:00i'm so glad you wrote this. i am feeling the E...i'm so glad you wrote this. i am feeling the EXACT same way today. being a mama is so hard!!! wish i could beam myself through the internet to give you a hug. hope you're feeling better today, now that a few days have passed, and that your little sweetie is doing better, too. lots of love xoxoxoJoanna Goddardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18109285188206811042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8608138282829733110.post-53114889649278447792010-11-28T00:03:27.692+01:002010-11-28T00:03:27.692+01:00oh, i so feel like i can relate to this post. nev...oh, i so feel like i can relate to this post. never enough time in the day to be all that we want to both others and ourselves. keeping and reading blogs at night is my only escape it seems...with a cup of tea. xoxoTiffany from HOLIDAYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16785950236551788694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8608138282829733110.post-798182234464075982010-11-27T20:15:31.931+01:002010-11-27T20:15:31.931+01:00Firstly, that photo of the little person is adorab...Firstly, that photo of the little person is adorable!<br />Secondly, I feel for you! Buy yourself some flowers and chocolates and have a bubble bath. Your gorgeous little man wil be all grown up before you know it and independant, and maybe you'll even wish for these days back again.

We all have those days, weeks...Its just impossible to do everything as there is so much to do and so little time...Im often over my hear with it all and I dont have childen yet. So I can only image how hard it must be when you also have children to care for but you know what? We dont have to be perfect. Sometimes just say...I need an hour to relax and have a bubble bath or glass of wine...Sending you hugs:)<br />Kisses, my dearDiana Mieczanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15261207538442821812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8608138282829733110.post-62449638197322973152010-11-27T16:13:11.015+01:002010-11-27T16:13:11.015+01:00i understand 100% and i am cheering you on from he...i understand 100% and i am cheering you on from here in the states! we should consider a care package exchange for working moms who miss our after-work happy hours (i REALLY miss mine)...there are a lot of us out there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8608138282829733110.post-55776236389622433742010-11-27T15:59:27.160+01:002010-11-27T15:59:27.160+01:00Ouais... c'est pas très gai et malheureusement...Ouais... c'est pas très gai et malheureusement ton sentiment est partagé par beaucoup de jeunes mamans. ce que tu racontes me fait penser à une discussion que j'ai eu avec une copine la semaine dernière qui me disait: je n'y arrive pas, c'est trop dur c'est trop chiant, je ne vois pas ma fille, je ne veux plus vivre comme ça, j'aspire à mieux.<br />Pas facile hein. <br /><br />La condition des femmes a des progrès à faire.

What you need is I think some time for yourself, take an hour, go meet up with a friend, take a bath, have some wine, read a magazine or all of the above :) <br />I hope your little guy is feeling better by now, and I can only imagine what it was like for you to witness it all. I almost cried the first time Oscar got his vaccines because he started to cry like crazy... <br />Being a mum working full time is definitely not easy and I also get frustrated at times when I feel like my best to make everything works isn't enough. <br />But again don't worry, I'm sure you'll feel better tomorrow. You deserve a little break :) <br />Bisous xxMariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16853300493603084387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8608138282829733110.post-38209071366565111222010-11-27T03:51:43.227+01:002010-11-27T03:51:43.227+01:00It sounds like you need a glass of wine after the ...It sounds like you need a glass of wine after the kiddo goes to sleep! I always wonder how people with jobs and kids do it. Like you said, taking care of someone else + a home is a job in itself.

Still, I am so worried about balancing being a working woman and a mom. I think you are awesome! I'm sure you do a brilliant job - you just have those days that seem impossible. <br />(I'm curious about this magic massage. Jude has been sick for 2 weeks with the same thing... not to say the intensity sounds fun... just curious as to what it is exactly.)<br />Chin up!
