We have been hit! Gah-The flu bug is in full swing in our household and I have completely forgotten how terrible it can truly be. It is bad enough when you, yourself have come down with the flu bug, but when it affects your kids, it’s a whole new ball game.
Most of us are pretty aware of what to do when your child comes down with a sickness…and we know the remedy to treat it whether that means over the counter medicine, natural home remedies or going to see the doctor. But there are times I think to myself, “What should I feed this baby of mine to help her get well and to ease her discomfort?” I know that with the flu, limiting foods is best and you should stick with the BRAT diet. The BRAT diet is bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast. These are all gentle on the system when you or your child is down with the flu.
