Anyone have a pediatrician they like, preferably in Upper NW DC or Chevy Chase, MD?? We have MDIPA and I'm not having much luck on their search page!! Thanks!!!
We're looking into signing up for a class, and I know about Bradley (too many classes for us) and Hypnobirthing. Does anyone know or have experience with any other programs? We've selected a doula and will make contact with her soon. Thanks!!
I was getting HORRIBLE sinus headaches (about the eyes, top of head, and generally somewhat stuffy). I did not want to take meds, so I now do a sinus rinse about once or twice a week. I was given this technique by an Ear, Nose and Throat doctor to get rid of sinus infections. The headache goes away in a few hours and stays gone for DAYS! And, NO MEDS!!! Here's the gist (I just use a little table salt and warm water with a baby nasal aspirator):
To make your own saline, mix the following in a clean container:
½ to 1 teaspoon non-iodized salt (such as pickling or canning salt)
Pinch of baking soda (to prevent burning – can increase the amount as needed)
1 cup of warm water (filtered or previously boiled water)
Directions: Place the above mixture in a reusable sinus rinse bottle or draw up into a nasal bulb syringe. The most convenient way to perform a sinus rinse is in the shower, but may also be performed over a sink.
The head should be tilted down and to the side, with the rinse bottle or bulb syringe placed into one nostril. With your mouth open, the bottle or syringe is squeezed with moderate force, so that the water can go through the nasal passages. Let the solution sit in your nasal passage for a about 10-15 seconds before putting head upright. You may notice that mucus comes out of the nose with the water. Keep rinsing one side of the nose until the water comes out clear. Repeat the same process for the other nostril.
