Kids and Allergies

I don't know about you but we are experiencing horrible seasonal allergies in our house. In fact, experts are saying this is the worst allergy season in 27 years! Brianna has been suffering for awhile now, and I finally got her on some Claritin to help treat the itchy/watery eyes, runny nose, sneezing, etc. I'm going to do a through cleaning of her room this week, dusting, vaccuming, washing comforters and curtains, etc. Hopefully these things can help give her some relief!

Did you know that kids with eczema are more prone to allergies than kids who don't have the annoying skin disease? Brianna and Jonah both suffer from eczema and so it really isn't surprising to me that they both have rough springs and falls. We have found that Eucerine Calming Cream is one of the best ways to soothe their eczema flair ups, but everyone responds differently, so if your child is suffering from eczema make sure you talk to your pediatrician about the best course of treatment for them!

I found this great article at Safe Home Happy Mom about kids and allergies. If you're experiencing this at your house stop by and read this article. You can find it here.  I found this site on the Ultimate Blog Party sponsored by 5 Minutes for Mom and it is a wealth of great information, so make sure you check it out!
