Poor guy has a fever. It's not enough that he has stitches and now a fever and of course it has to happen the weekend that I'm going to be away. I feel horrible leaving him this weekend even it Miah is home. He's hardly been sick and when he was I have always been here to take care of him. I'm being over cautious and typing up his whole medical history just in case Miah has to take him to the ER this weekend since he probably won't be able to answer most of the questions because they are only ingrained in my memory. I know Miah will be great when he's here with Rex but it doesn't mean that Mommy doesn't feel guilty about leaving her little boy when he's sick.
So Rex won't take Mortin or any type of medicine to help with his fever either. So I headed out to Vitamin Cottage once again for help in this area and here is my review of their product.

Homeopathic Review
Ultima Kids! Replenisher, in other words Pedi-light powder. So I mixed it they way it said and he wouldn't drink it. I'm not sure if it is because he doesn't like it because he won't eat or drink any thing else. I will try it again when I need it and see if it helps.
Belladonna: to be used for high fever of sudden onset with perspiration. These are little balls that come in a not so user friendly container. Children and adults can take 5 to help reduce fever. Once I gave them to Rex his fever dropped faster than any time I have been able to make him take Mortin. It didn't make it go away but that's because he is still sick but it did help reduce it.
Hyland's Flu: to be used for fevers, chills, body aches that are caused by colds and flus. Rex took these with the belladonna to help with other discomfort he was feeling from being sick. Miah said that he could tell the difference when he gave this to Rex. He said Rex was more active than he was before and didn't seem as whiny.
The Belladonna and the Hyland's Flu worked great and there was no fighting to get him to take it! That was a major plus. It's not fun when your child is sick but then to force them to take something they don't like while they are screaming and they choke because of it makes it even worse. Gotta say I will use homeopathic things any day over medicine just because it's healthier for us but also because it requires less effort to get Rex to take it.
