Growing pains are a pain!
We just got back from a WONDERFUL vacation in South Dakota, but wanted to sneak in a quick Works for Me Wednesday post, because this tip saved our vacation!
Gremlin, unfortunately, has the worst cases of growing pains. He gets them 2–3 times a week and the more active he is during the day, the worse they are at night. We have some natural rubbing lotion that works but not real quick and we left it at home (ugh!). Then a relative told me to give him a teaspoon — tablespoon of mustard. Good old-fashion yellow mustard. It’s a kicker going down, but it stops the cramping almost immediately! No lie!
Isn’t that something?!
I would’ve loved if someone would’ve shared this with me years ago, so I hope this helps someone! 











My youngest gets growing pains (and likes mustard). Will definitely give this a try
Oh, I hope it works for her, Melissa.
wow. . .who would have thought?? Thanks for sharing!
