I’ve known of the wonders of chamomile tea since I was little, and my Mom has given it to me and my siblings since our infancy. However, my son’s pediatrician does not recommend it at all… I just find it funny that about 30 years later, in a more advanced and modern medical world, chamomile is not always recommended or recognized.

Thanks, Meggs! Yeah, some people are sensitive to the chamomile. That’s why I’d suggest testing it out first, just to make sure there’s no reaction. Skin tests often work well, or if you know you’re allergic, there is a chance your baby is too. Thanks again!

Chamomile has disinfectant and healing properties for wounds — e.g. cuts, scrapes, burns and scratches — not only for babies and children, but for all ages, and pets, too. It also makes a good soak for tired or athletes-foot-infected feet. I’m glad to see more people discovering this and getting the word out.

Unfortunately, chamomile is one of the things that people with oral allergy syndrome can be sensitive to, so anyone with hay fever should use it with caution and monitor their reaction.
