I’ve always said whether it’s baby #1 or baby #6, the first few months with a baby can be absolutely brutal. That’s why I’m here to give you some advice on how homeopathy helped me survive baby’s first year. Specifically, how Boiron helped. Although this is a sponsored post by Boiron& PTPA, my love of all of their products is 100% mine.
The first few weeks are hard because you’re getting use to a brand-new baby’s schedule, feedings, diapers and all that jazz. As a new mom you’re healing from the birth, sleep deprivation and everything in between.
However, a few weeks after the baby gets here you’ll start experiencing a few things you won’t know how to handle like colic, colds and teething. As a first-time mom these things were so overwhelming to me and frustrating because I couldn’t figure out how to help my little one.
Most important you are doing everything to keep these little ones free from toxins, and artificial stuff that could hurt them that you’re left at a loss as how to help. So, one thing I began doing when we faced things like colic and teething was to talk to my pediatrician about ways I could help give my littles relief.
How Homeopathy helped me survive baby’s first year.
Being a more natural minded pediatrician, she recommended one brand that we began to use for the whole family Boiron. Founded by pharmacists in 1932, Boiron is the world leader in homeopathic medicines. Boiron pride themselves on using earth-sourced active ingredients to restore balance in the body and relieve symptoms.
What is better than giving your child products that are natural active and earth-sourced for relief? Products backed by years of use and research. Ironically, my husband and I had been using Boiron’s ColdCalm when we’ve gotten a cold. We also stock up around flu season with Boiron’s Oscillococcinum.
We couldn’t believe how quickly we were able to kick colds after the first use. So naturally we began using these products for our babies.
Making this our go to relief for the whole family from littles to big.
What makes Boiron so fantastic?
They’ve been around for a long time. Most important At Boiron, they believe there’s more than one way to feel better. Since 1932, the Boiron family has been committed to providing quality medicines. As world leader in homeopathy, their passion is your health. They also stand by their products with a money back guarantee. How many companies can do that?
So naturally I looked to Boiron for relief of the common ailments that babies will have from colic to colds.
Babies will begin to experience colic at around week 2 and can last until they’re about 6 months. Thanks to the soothing power of ColicComfort babies 1 month and up can have gas pain and irritability reduced.*
Of course, once you think colic is over you get hit with teething and NOTHING can prepare you for that.
There are babies that pop teeth up without a problem. However, some have a hard time. Very hard. That’s why I was grateful to have Camilia with my little ones.
Thanks to the single use vials I didn’t have to worry about giving them too much or too little. Best of all it was a stress-free solution for relief of painful gums and irritability.*
See that’s the beauty of this line of baby products. They make this stressful time stress free by giving you amazing products that will help your little ones. Best of all they give it to you in easy to give doses that you can take anywhere and everywhere.
Did you know babies will catch up to 7 colds their first year? However, there really isn’t much you can do, that is unless you use ColdCalm from Boiron. Their homeopathic medicine is for children 6 months & up. This multi-symptom formula contains eight homeopathic medicines that target specific symptoms at the onset, established and resolution stages of the common cold.*
So your little one will get relief of the symptoms that trouble them most. I should add their adult formula is the best thing ever invented for the common cold. So make sure and check it out for yourself.
Why homeopathy?
Homeopathic medicine has been used for generations by physicians to treat ailments. As a society we’ve come to rely a lot on prescriptions but finding relief from many health issues can be found in nature. This has been the go to for over 200 years. Millions of people around the world rely on homeopathy and for many the relief is quicker than going to your local pharmacy shelves.
In the US homeopathic medicine is manufactured under strict accordance with the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States and is regulated as a homeopathic drug by the FDA. Homeopathy is usually the go to for common ailments and there is an increasing number of scientific studies on homeopathic medicines being conducted and published in peer-reviewed journals. Clinical research is providing evidence of the effectiveness of homeopathic medicine daily.
With a company like Boiron, I feel safe trusting my whole family with their huge line of products. Most important Boiron’s products don’t cause drowsiness, sleeplessness and they have no known drug interactions. There is also a low risk of side effects when taking homeopathic medicines making this our choice for self-treatable conditions.
As a parent you don’t always have the ability to relieve everything your child experiences, but with these products I’ve been able to have a proactive solution to many of the obstacles I face the first year.
After 6 babies I can tell you how much I trust Boiron products not just for my babies but for our whole family. I promise you’ll fall in love like I have. What I love about this line is that whatever the ailment there’s a Boiron product for it. From allergies to the flu, there’s a Boiron for it. So stock up on these fantastic products.

Hello friends! Looking for reliable places to buy homeopathic remedies in Sydney. Can anyone recommend trusted pharmacies or stores? Why I ask: I would like to get opinions and recommendations from those who have already used homeopathy. Perhaps someone has interesting experiences or advice? I would be grateful for any information!
Darina Flaw says
I am glad to hear that homeopathy has played a positive role in your child’s health development. The first year of a baby’s life is really challenging for a mom. I am well aware of that. My baby was mixed breastfed and in addition to breast milk I gave uk formula as the former was not enough. This formula is a good alternative to breast milk as it contains all the useful components for the proper development of the baby.

Sue E says
I previously pinned this, but I am pinning again. One thing that can make a new mom crazy is when her sweet little baby turns into a little ghoulie (without adding a drop of water?)!
Unfortunately when I had children, this brand of products were not around! I used a lot of home remedies and they worked well and they didn’t cost an arm and a leg!! For example: for diaper rash, I made a cornstarch paste. I also had them sleep with out a diaper or their plastic pants. A little honey and lemon was for minor coughs. Well I won’t go on, because you do have this all natural product. Which I am happy for baby and mommy! Having 6 kids, I trust your recommendations. Thank you for sharing!!
NANCY says

When my babies were born many years ago, we didn’t have that many products for diaper rash. I used Vaseline, Desitin. and I used a paste that I made. Sometimes I used milk and corn starch. If I didn’t have corn starch, I used flour. I used cloth diapers and plastic pants at that time. At bedtime, the babies laid in the crib on their stomachs with a receiving blanket under them. They wore the top of their pjs or their sacks were pulled up and they slept like that – the air did their butts good. I only did that if their bottoms were bad. Yes, babies slept on their stomachs. I liked that position better than laying them on their back to sleep. Back then I wasn’t told about the preferred lying on their backs when baby slept. They preferred sleeping on their stomachs also. They didn’t jerk themselves awake, like they did when they were sleeping on their backs. Things have really changed regarding baby care today! Thank you for sharing!
