You think you are helping your children…

My 3 month old son has had a cold/cough for nearly a month and has been through one round of antibiotics. Plus, I have been giving him probiotics (which I highly recommend anyway). Well, since the cough is still there, I contacted the holistic doctor he had seen a month ago and she said that maybe his body is detoxing from having too much of the probiotics. I never knew a baby could go through something like this.
I though I was doing what’s best for my son, but maybe it was a little too much!
He should be coughing less in the next few days, but we’ll see. I definitely don’t want to do antibiotics again.
If you have been hit with the cold/flu that has been going around, definitely consider using probiotics to build up the good bacteria in your system. Just don’t take too much!
