Homeopathic First Aid Kit « Back to Group Discussions

[eminvc]

Hi ladies,

I'm working on creating a sort of first aid/medical kit for the babies. What should be in my homeopathic first aid kit? Any recommendations for various ointments, etc would be lovely...or, perhaps better yet, if anyone knows of a great kit I can buy online that has practically everything I need, please provide a link! I am registered for a Red Cross baby first aid kit or something of the sort, but I noticed on some other threads people had some homemade cough syrups, etc.

I do realize I could probably research this on my own, but I am just so tired!

If there's not a ready-made kit, top-10 lists would be appreciated. Hopefully other first-time mamas will also find the info helpful.

i ALWAYS have handy in my home, although i have much more than this but these are musts: 

--activated charcoal (for ingested toxins)

--real, pure aloe vera leaf juice pulp. no added colors, etc. keep it refrigerated. 

--chamomile tea

--comfrey/chickweed balm

--eucalyptus leaf (keep in freezer; for facial steam/vapor when congested)

--ginger chews

--lavender essential oil (calming but also if you or child gets an insect sting, put it on immediately and ice the area and it's gone in minutes)

--homemade licorice root/slippery elm lozenges. i can post my recipe if you'd like

--peppermint tea (digestive aid)

--tea tree oil

--witch hazel

The homeopathic remedy manufacturers I think put together a kit.  I know I was offered the option to buy one from my homeopath a few years ago when I was going.  Here is a website describing what you could get to assemble one.

garlic oil and colloidal silver...I am a Master Herbalist and these are indispensable items.

Garlic oil on the feet for viruses...etc. Colloidal silver for ample issues. Oh, and gumomile.

it is a name brand product but it is in my babies kit always it is the best teething help I have ever had!
