this week has been hard. mila has been sick since monday. yesterday we decided to bring her to the doctor. she gave us antibiotics. we don’t like antibiotics. turns out mila hates them. whoever designed this to be the way we should give drugs to our kids:

why? why not a gummy bear? i can see the trauma arising on mila as we force her to take this and it is suffocating

father, meditator and (freelance miniapp builder and consultant). this month working for $runner

I remember having to hold my first kid down to give it to her. It felt like torture. I will never forget. It was infinitely more traumatic to me than her. Was less traumatic with the second kid but the same thing.

There are a lot of tricks we tried. One good one is to cut a hole in a pacifier, we tried ice cream, juice but in the end the kids are too smart.

They eventually grow out of it and just take it (like eventually in the time of months). Kids get sick a lot.

man yesterday was one of those torture moments for us. and it was a turning point also. today we just masked it with yogurt and did as if nothing was happening and it worked. she didn’t realize she was getting it

11 doses more to go lol

Good luck my friend. We are all there with you in spirit.
