🌞 Hey, Parent!
This week has been a real test of our resilience here at home. With two little ones under three, the days have been long and the nights even longer. Between battling fevers that won't quit, endless runny noses, don’t being able to breathe properly and the woes of teething, it feels like our household has been through the wringer.
As I share these challenges with you, it's not just to swap stories of sleepless nights but to dive into some important health updates that could affect our little troops and how we can better protect them in these trying times.
