Cold/ear infection/eczema/Question for John Stanton
HelloMy DD is 8 months old today. She is totally breast fed. She keeps catching a cold/runny nose from her older sister. She alredy had an ear infection. Feel she has a low immunity. She was born thru c-section. She also keeps scratching herself when ever she gets a chance. The doc said she had mild eczema. She was allergiv to nuts and hence I have stopped eating all the nuts. She is having a running nose again just after a week after having the ear infection and I dont want her to end up with a ear infection again. She wakes up every 2-3 hours to basically nurse. What can I do to improve her immunity/prevent ear infections/stop her cold from turning to ear infection/make her sleep thru the nights/stop her itching.
I have tried sulphur/petroleum for eczema - Does not work.
I am giving Bryonia for her cold. Dont know if that is correct.
I feel she started to scratch after her first vaccination though it does not have mercury.

1).Mother is generally healthy. Vegetarian by birth, was anemic during pregnancy. Apart from that no problems
2).Mother has coffee in the morning, some break fast(indian pan cakes) or cereals or some rice dish
For lunch has mainly rice,yogurt,veggies,lenthils,rotis(made of wheat) and the same for dinner with fruits. These are the main contents in everyday diet.
Has multivitamins (made from whole food called "Alive"). I sometimes have fenugreek supplements, DHA supplements and some times add FLAX oil in the night with yogurt.
3) Baby had only mothers milk for 6 months. Last couple of months has other solid food "organic baby food" bottles from earths best
4). Baby was born through a planned c-section at 38 weeks at 9.4 pounds. As soon as she was born she had some breathing problems. She was making some grunting noise. The doctors could not find anything wrong with her. They said she would outgrow it. She also had mild jaundice which went away in a week.
5). She had her first shots at 2 months(Oct 2005) and then at 4 months(December 2005) (Hep B,Dtap,Ipav) and I feel her itching started after that. Cannot be a 100% sure abt it. I did not still get her 6 months one yet.
6) She has had
Jaundice at birth
Breathing problems at birth (No treatement for that)
She had a pink eye from her older sister for which the doctor gave her a antibiotic eye drop.
Since she kept scratching, I took her to get an allergy test in which she was positive to nuts and negative to milk,wheat,soy,eggs and almonds.
I stopped eating nuts after that. The doctor gave her some steriod cream which I did not use for more than 2 days. That is when I tried sulphur/petroleam/arsenic album for a few days and that did not help too. After I stopped eating nuts, her itching reduced by 5-10 %.
Then a couple of weeks ago, she got fever,cough and cold which ended up with slight ear infection for which she was treated with antibiotics. I had pro-biotics in my diet while she was on antibiotics. I just gave her homeopathic medicines for cold and cough. Then yesterday night, she has a runny nose and I got scared where she is getting a cold again and will end up with ear infection and hence I wrote today.

when breast feeding child/mother are to be treated as one----some effect due to mother's dietary indiscretion..this need be considered and dealt with firstly...
sulphur is first choice --and to be given if not in advent/during 'cold' episode...noting just has started with runny nose again then pulsatilla to start treatment..
important to have remedies readily available--by next day--or on hand---once treatment has started---varying potencies and such so as to manage cas efficiently...
single (4 pellets)dose pulsatilla 30c to be givento mother--not child (as long as still breast feeding)---
IMPORTANT!!mother and child must AVOID --all sweets;a all acidic foods/drinks (coffee;tea;all carbonated soft drinks;fruits and fruit juices;vinegar...etc);;also NO fatty foods-oils and such --rich foods...
no other medicines /herbs/..etc
child start using "udos choice super 5" probiotic--or EQUIVALENT...fulll spec bacteria...
remedies to have on hand..
pulsatilla 30c;200c
nux vomica 200c
sulpur 30c;200c
hepar sulpuris calcareum 30c
how readily are remedies for you to obtain?

Thanks John,
So should the child not eat any fruit bottles? I can get the remedies in 2 days. Also for the probiotics, should the child have it and if so how much should I give her, what frequency and for how many days?

Actually I have all the remedies except pulsatilla 200c. I will order that and will have it in 2 days. But I have the rest. Can I start the treatment?
DP last decade
no fruit bottles for now...
probiotic given dose 3 times per day and will access from there--t--then can reduce --but depends on response---mother is to take also if mother has had antibiotic use .
yes can start treatment now --with puls 30c as menioned above... also be sure follow restrictions..
keep me closely informed--here at this site or email--no matter----
