Getting Through the Tough Days of Being a Mom + Giveaway

IMG_2974-001The video and gift card have been provided by Pfizer Consumer Healthcare. All thoughts and reviews are my own.

As a mom, there are so many perfect and joyous moments in each day.  From the first days at home, to first days at school, there is laughter and smiles and picture-perfect moments.  There are also plenty of not so great, hectic, frantic and down-right crazy moments in the mom life.  Have you ever had to take care of two sick kids at the same time?  I can remember a time when Ollie was sick with a stomach ailment and Ruby was covered head-to-toe in hives at the same time.  The hives were so bad she was physically ill, feverish and lethargic.  That was quite the challenge and I felt so bad for them both, I hate to see my loves being sick and uncomfortable.  As a parent, all we want is for our kids to be healthy and happy.  

The pediatric brands of Pfizer Consumer healthcare have released this Sick just got real TM video  shown above that gives an idea of what us moms sometimes go through when our kids are sick.  When life is at it’s worst, it can only get better, right?  I like to think positive in those kinds of situation, it really helps me to get through it all.  It always helps to stock up on Children’s Advil and Children’s Robitussin so that I’m ready when sickness does strike.  Visit SickJustGotReal.com for sick solutions, sick support, coupons and more.

    I cope with sickness by cuddling under blankets and eating chicken noodle soup.

    I can really relate to the video. I just do what I can to get the kids feeling better as soon as possible when they are sick.

    The video was funny and had a super sweet ending. I think all moms feel this way when sick gets real.

    I thought the video was great. When sick gets real, I try to take it one hour at a time and try to get everyone to rest!

    My favorite part of the video is her amazing cake. Whenever I try to remake a recipe/craft they never turn out.

    I like that the video portrayed some real situations that mom goes through frequently. When I have moments like these, I close my eyes and take a deep breath so that I will have a calmer disposition to deal with stressors. Taking it one moment at a time helps me focus and prioritize the crisis.
