Great Tip

In my blog reading here at HSB2 I just found a wonderful interesting tip for night time coughing.
Rub Vicks Vapor Rub on the feet and then cover with socks- the coughing will stop!
I will definitely be doing this the next time one of the kids develops a coughing fit.

Hat Tip to Titus 2 Woman! Thanks a bunch!

That is a good Idea. I have heard of doing that on your neck but not your feet. I will have to try that.

My dh has told me that many times. His mom used to do it to them when he was little, it works!

My MIL has told me this for years.... I just haven't tried it!! My DH thinks his mom comes up with crazy ideas! LOL! I will try it next time one of us has a cold (she says it is great for colds)!!!

I will have to try to remember that. I wonder if Euculyptus oil (mixed with a carrier oil) would do the same thing. I think I still have Vic's though.
