Growing pains are a pain!

Own work

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!  Works for Me Wednesday
