I'm down with a nasty, though garden variety, case of the flu. Symptoms are dry cough, 102 fever, aches all over. I've been treating myself with large doses of Vit C, Vita Biotics, and staying bundled up. I seem to be getting better.
I'm concerned that my daughter (16 mo old) may get it and I want to head off anything I can, or be able to deal with what may come. She's unvaxxed, breastfed 2-4 times a day, and rarely gets sick.
The problem is that what I do to treat myself doesn't work for her. I've been giving her Vit C, but not in large doses, because even the normal dosage causes her stinky diarrhea, and the last thing I want to do is get her dehydrated. She can't take Vita Biotics, either, since there is not children's dosage.
If she isn't showing symptoms, is there a homeopathic prophylactic, or something herbal I can give her? I'll stick with the Vit C in the dosage I'm giving her, but I don't dare increase it.
