Airborne has really helped my cold!

Okay so I'm still a little runny, but I feel wayyyyyy better after taking Airborne for the last couple of days. Good to know, right?

And also, I've been washing my hands and my kids hands like a person with OCD. I swear I've been through half a container of liquid soap this week.

I'm so excited for you and happy to know it's something I will try next time I start to get sick.

I just ordered the hand sanitizer they use in the NICU and my poor kids will use that stuff all day long and anyone else who comes in contact with us

My sis is a flight attendant and buys that stuff in bulk at BJs. She takes it religiously before every flight. If she doesn't, she usually ends up catching some bug from somebody... Airborne and Zicam - I swear by the stuff!

Can we safely use Airborne while pregnant? I have a closet full of it staring at me and have been to afraid to use it when needed?

Well my thought is, my edd is in 2d, so there isn't much harm I can do to the baby at this point. I'm not sure how safe it is in general, but at this point everything is game...

Delurking. Airborne is a no no during pregnancy (I wish I could remember the exact reasoning - oh, I know - Airborne is many many vitamins and all of those even without a regular prenatal could be too much for a fetus to handle), but Zicam is okay.

[mittendrin]

That makes sense. Airborne is not homeopathic, just Vit's and minerals. So I'd be cautious taking it. I never did. Zicam is a combination of Hom. remedies. Most homeopathic remedies are fine during pregnancies, but I would always consult the mw first.
