First of all, I am so sorry if your child has had some kind of infection requiring antibiotics. That’s never fun to have a sick child. Once someone starts antibiotics, this is usually the case for kids or adults, it usually takes about 48 hours to see some difference in symptoms. And if you’re not seeing any difference in symptoms, or especially if you’re seeing worsening symptoms after that point, then you should call the doctor back and see if they want to change the plan or check them out at that point. We would love to hear from you. If you have any questions that you’d like to ask I will be answering them on a weekly basis. If you have any questions that you’d like to ask anonymously then you can go to our Intermountain Moms Facebook page, click on the “ask Nurse Dani” tab, and ask them there as well as see answers.

Parents and teachers! Are you dealing with unacceptable behaviour? Trouble getting a child to cooperate? Trying to stop an unacceptable action, or behaviour?
We’ve all been there! So you’re not alone! As parents and teachers we all want children to follow our instructions, cooperate, and give us respect.
At times, we also need to target a specific behaviour because it is either unacceptable or inappropriate. Today’s video looks at how to focus on eliminating a specific behaviour, and get children to cooperate with what you are asking.
This communication technique is simple, yet effective and has worked with countless children of all ages. Direct, powerful, yet every simile, we want you to try this technique and benefit from knowing what to say at that moment when you are faced with unacceptable behaviour.

You have a really good question about your child’s milk allergy and this can present a great challenge for parents and children alike. Your doctor has recommended special formula, the Nutramigen, for your baby because they have a hard time breaking down the proteins found in milk. And hydrolyzed formula which is what Nutramigen is has chopped up proteins in it that make it easier for your baby to digest. So that’s why they told you to feed this to your baby. And there’s no doubt about it, Nutramigen stinks to us and probably doesn’t taste the best to the baby. But you can keep trying and his taste buds might adapt. Or there’s a competitor’s brand out there called Alimentum and you can try that and see if your baby takes a little bit better to the taste of that. If you’re still having problems getting your baby to eat then talk to your baby’s doctor and he or she might have some further recommendations or want to see your baby especially if they’re not getting enough to eat or refusing to eat altogether and they’re not gaining weight. Those can be some serious issues that really need to be addressed. But you can try the competitor’s brand or just give it a couple more days as long as you feel like he’s getting enough inside to stay well hydrated. And good luck. If you have any questions that you’d like to ask anonymously click on “ask Nurse Dani” underneath the profile picture and we will answer those questions as well.

I’m Amy McCready, and I am here to provide simple solutions to your most frustrating discipline dilemmas.
Our question today is from Kelly K of San Jose, CA and she asks…
“What’s the best way to handle it when my parenting style is completely different then their father’s style?
He’s a command, demand type while I’d rather use positive parenting.”
DO’S & DONT’S CHECKLIST:
1. DON’T correct or criticize his parenting style. I know it’s tempting — but it’s only going to invite a power struggle between the two of you.. You want to avoid anything that will feel like judgment — because it will just make him get defensive and shut down.
2. DON’T disagree about discipline strategies in front of the kids. They’ll quickly learn they can to play one against the other for their advantage.
1. DO have a calm discussion about why you disagree on parenting and discipline styles. Explore how both of you were raised and the positives and negatives that resulted from that parenting style. Listen with an open ear and an open heart. Your objective is to get to common ground but you have to seek to understand his perspective first.
2. DO find one or two aspects of parenting and discipline in which you do agree. You’ll have more success if you focus on the few areas where do agree rather than spending a lot of energy on the many aspects of parenting in which you disagree. If you are enrolled in our PPS Online course — pick 2 or 3 of the tools in the toolbox that you both feel good about using and use those consistently.
3. DO keep doing what YOU’RE doing! Continue modeling the positive strategies that you know work well with your kids. If he sees that your kids are consistently cooperative and well behaved when you use those tools — he’ll be more likely to try them. Of course — when he does try them — resist the urge to give him an “I told you so” — don’t say a word and let him enjoy the results of using the more effective strategies.
4. DO ask yourself the question — “What do we want our child to LEARN from this experience or discipline opportunity?” That helps you focus on what will be most helpful to your child so they can make a better choice next time – rather than arguing over who’s approach is the “right” approach.
I want to hear from you! — What have been your biggest challenges with a spouse or partner who has different parenting philosophies and what has helped you to get at least a bit more on the same page? Let me know in the comment section under this video.

I wish you parenting peace. — Amy McCready

Welcome to the Positive Parenting Solution of the Week!
This week’s tip will help you minimize sibling rivalry and competition.
The unfortunate truth about sibling relationships is that there’s a natural sense of rivalry that sets in. There’s nothing you can do to eliminate it completely — but there are things you can do to minimize it.
It’s important to be aware of what parents unknowingly do to intensify rivalry. These seem like innocent gestures but they can have harmful and lasting consequences.
One of the biggies is to make sure we’re not comparing our kids through labels, spoken or implied. Because, If you’re the smart one, the pretty one, the athletic one — then I must be the opposite. If mom calls me her “wild one” — then that let’s you feel pretty “superior” and that’s a recipe that’s ripe for resentment, very.
Some labels are more subtle. If you hand your son a stack of plates to carry into the dining room and you say, “Now hold these very tightly and don’t trip over the rug.” He probably perceives himself as clumsy.
If you remind your daughter 15 times every morning to not forget her homework, lunch or PE clothes — you can bet she’s wearing the disorganized or forgetful label.
Another subtle but discouraging label is the Go-To Kid:
This is the child you can count on to complete a task competently and without much complaining—so whenever you really need something important done, you go to the go to kid.
However, anytime you don’t share responsibility evenly in an age-appropriate way, you tell your other kids that they’re not as significant or capable as your go-to kid. In doing so, you foster an atmosphere of competition.
As your kids get older and you’re more comfortable leaving them alone for short periods, it’s wise not to put one child in charge of anothe — this only fuels rivalry and one-upmanship. Instead, each should be responsible for himself and specific tasks — Evan for making lunch and pouring milk, and Jason for cleaning up after the meal.
What labels (positive or negative) were prevalent in your house growing up and how did they make you feel?
(Let me know in the comment section under this video.)
