What's it take for you to call in sick?

nospam@example.com ()

A wave of coughing, congestion, and discomfort has swept through my home. It came on quickly, as it usually does, during the weeks when I haven't had enough sleep and the kids at my son's preschool seem to be more sniffly than usual. It's inevitable every that every couple of months during the winter, we will go through an alarming number of tissues, cartons of orange juice, and hours spent sitting in a steamy bathroom.

I've gotten pretty good at handling cold symptoms, especially since I've been a parent, and have my basket of medicines and remedies on the ready. What I am not good about, quite honestly, is taking time off to really fight back against the germs and weariness.

I've had a rough year (emotionally speaking) and have used age-old remedies like the classic "happy-song-playlist", run-till-you-drop-exercise, yak-yak-talks over gallons of coffee with close friends an even a couple of drinks with an old-flame-turned-best-friend....

Natural Home Remedies for 4 Common Kid Ailments

There's a time and a place for antibiotics and other medications, but when it comes to ailments like sniffles or constipation, tried-and true natural treatments often work just as well as over-the-counter pharmaceuticals. Meant to stimulate the body's ability to heal itself, these treatments come without fears about mystery ingredients. After all, lemons don't come with warning labels and potential side effects.

Of course, it's important to note that just because something is natural doesn't necessarily mean it's safe. If you're considering a homespun remedy for one of the common kid ailments below, you should bounce the idea off of your pediatrician first.

Ugh, summer colds. Winter colds aren't exactly a walk in the (snowy) park, but at least most people are stuck inside anyway. Summer colds always seem to land during the most glorious days filled with sunshine and barbecues and day trips to the beach. And if you are like Shine reader Jess, they...
