Even during some of the ugly days of hand foot and mouth, Motrin would help him sleep off the misery! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-motrin-ever-a-miracle-cure-for-anyone-elses-kiddo#post-2627713 Tue, 27 Sep 2016 10:04:28 +0000 mrsbubbletea 2627713@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dahlia: yes and for me too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-motrin-ever-a-miracle-cure-for-anyone-elses-kiddo#post-2627679 Tue, 27 Sep 2016 09:40:20 +0000 cascademom 2627679@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's worked great for us. Our youngest is the one who got on the Motrin train for us. It does wonders for him. When I was postpartum the first time, I did Tylenol and had a rough recovery. With my second's postpartum recovery, I did Motrin and rebounded so much quicker. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-motrin-ever-a-miracle-cure-for-anyone-elses-kiddo#post-2627678 Tue, 27 Sep 2016 09:39:03 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 2627678@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Motrin/Advil/Ibuprofen is a miracle cure for me, too ;-) I usually go for that over Tylenol when my kids aren't feeling good because I know it actually works. </p> <p>My youngest jumped off the slide on the playground and landed on another kid. She ended up biting *through* her tongue - that Advil made all the difference - I couldn't believe how much she ate after it kicked in! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-motrin-ever-a-miracle-cure-for-anyone-elses-kiddo#post-2627673 Tue, 27 Sep 2016 09:24:07 +0000 looch 2627673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ibuprofen in general was a wonder drug for my son. I could dose him with acetaminophen all night with no results, but one dose of ibuprofen and we'd see a reduction in fever right away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-motrin-ever-a-miracle-cure-for-anyone-elses-kiddo#post-2627655 Tue, 27 Sep 2016 08:55:51 +0000 Foodnerd81 2627655@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Motrin is the best. Tylenol did nothing for teething before 6 months. </p> <p>@peachykeen: my toddler asks for it anytime she sees the bottle or medicine cup or sees me give it to her sister. Sorry it's not candy kiddo. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-motrin-ever-a-miracle-cure-for-anyone-elses-kiddo#post-2627631 Tue, 27 Sep 2016 07:27:08 +0000 peachykeen 2627631@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Motrin has always worked for DD - she just turned 2 in August. There was one illness recently where it didn't work as well and I was SHOCKED. She actually asks for 'edicine' any time she doesn't feel right (it's a good clue something's off with her, actually) and I usually have to tell her no unless it's bad enough to warrant it :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-motrin-ever-a-miracle-cure-for-anyone-elses-kiddo#post-2627593 Mon, 26 Sep 2016 22:38:16 +0000 abbydabbydoodlebug 2627593@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Motrin was a miracle drug for us during teething! My DD never got a fever, but as soon as the meds would kick in, she'd be a totally different kid. Lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-motrin-ever-a-miracle-cure-for-anyone-elses-kiddo#post-2627589 Mon, 26 Sep 2016 22:32:39 +0000 Dahlia 2627589@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO has had a couple of illnesses in the last few months where she is totally miserable, sleepy, so cranky, runny nose, and feverish. But when we give her Motrin she is 100% fine after it kicks in, bouncing off the walls, eating everything in sight, and smiling and giggling. </p> <p>Anyone else's LO easily fixed with some Motrin? Despite my skepticism about teething causing fevers/runny noses/etc., I'm starting to wonder if these episodes are actually teething, given how easily they are fixed. I know last time one of her bottom eye teeth did pop through a day or two later, and this time her top two eyeteeth are clearly visible right below the surface. </p> <p>Anyway, just curious and oh-so-grateful Motrin works as well as it does for us! </p>
