Tracy did you call your DR about what you can take? I have sinus problems too and when I was pregnant my Dr said I could take Tylenol Sinus. There is no sense being miserable that is not good for the baby either they sense when Mom is not feeling well. I do hope you feel better whatever route you take.

I'm so sorry to hear about Hannah pulling her hair again. I would be crying too, it's gotta be so hard to deal with, and frustrating. Keep your chin up and hopefull you will figure out what can help her.

(((((((((HUGS)))))))))))) and lots of understanding as you know my child suffers from the same. You know what I did. I bought him a HUGE tube of gumballs and he chews them to DEATH! It sounds silly as HECK but I think the chewing takes his mind off of picking. It has been determined that he picks when he's nervous or anxious. So we have allowed him to chew gum. We shared with the school (prinipal and teachers) and our church. As long as the gum is not disruptive (bubbles, smacking etc) he is allowed to chew until his heart is content. I tried to find a picture at Cost Plus World market (thats where i bought it) but there isn't one there. The tube has to be about 3 feet tall and its filled with gumballs!


Again, it sounds dumb- but it has/is working! His eyebrows are back and the bald spots are full again! The gumballs and my prayers......


FYI: I pray to God everynight about this issue and I ALWAYS include you and Hannah. It's heartbreaking for

Mornin'....


I am sipping a caramel latte with whipped cream-YUM!


Today, LAUNDRY is on my agenda! I don't know how I am going to work around my DISCOMBOBULATED house (ugh!). I am such a whiner....but the painter SWORE he'd be done yesterday. It's looking more like Friday. We got our house measured for hardwood and new carpet yesterday, we get the quote today. I need that to start by Monday of next week. I am excited but at the same time I am irritated because Ican't funcrion in dysfunction.


Anyways, enough about that. We'll be eating out AGAIN and after I shuffle the kids off to football ans Tae Kwon Do and I need to spend some time moving my craft stuff into my cabinet in the garage.


That's it for me.....Have a super day, friends!

Thanks Michelle, I haven't called the doctor yet. I went out at lunch to Bath & Body Works and got their herbal Cold and Flu Bath Soak. Even when I am not pregnant Tylenol Sinus doesn't do anything for me. I seem to have a very low pain tolerance, but very high medication tolerance, not much ever affects me. My doctor didn't believe me when after I had Jordyn and had stitches, I told him the Tylenol 3 wouldn't work so he gave me morphine for the pain. He was amazed that after an hour he came back to check on me and I asked when he was going to get rid of the pain, the morphine did nothing for me.

I'm sorry it and other things don't work for you. Sudafed and a few other things don't work for me either.


I hope that stuff from Bath & Body Works helps.

Tracy (or others with sinus issues), at the risk of being known as the weirdo of the board (though I freely admit I am!), have you ever heard of a neti pot?
