Home Remedies for Children's IRRITABILITY
Every baby and child is likely to be irritable from time to
time. Irritability is often a sign of frustration that results
from trying to crawl, walk, talk and so forth. Those who are
adventurous, fearless individuals who want to push the
boundaries faster than they should are liable to be
particularly irritable when thwarted.
Irritability is only a problem when it becomes stressful to
both child and parents. Some natural remedies have
soothing properties and can help to restore a sense of
calmness and emotional balance.
- Chamomile is renowned for soothing the nervous
system. Add a few drops of Chamomile essential oil
to a night-time bath, sprinkle onto your child's pillow
case or tuck a tissue scented with this essence into
baby's cot.
- For irritable babies, you could also add a few drops of
Chamomile tincture to an evening bottle of milk. For
toddlers and older children, try sips of weak
Chamomile tisane sweetened with honey.
