Re: test came back NEGATIVE! Yay!

So if the test came back negative, he doesn't need Antibiotics . Antibiotics will do nothing for a cold!

My kids have gone through colds, earaches (that lasted a day) one ear infection that lasted 3 days, coughs and flus and of course chicken pox. Never had Antibiotics . I also never gave any supplements until babies were over 1 year, and closer to 2.

If I thought they needed anything I would take it in my diet, and have the extras come through breast milk, (like garlic). I have heard garlic can upset a babies tummy - however this never happened with mine. The only thing I couldn't eat was cabbage.

With babies that were sick I did the following:

Nursed on demand and then some
Eucalyptus in the air or warm mist vaporizer
Natural/organic garlic added to my diet

Toddlers and older:

Buffered Vitamin C
Garlic Oil
Cod Liver Oil
Echinacia/Astragalus
Various warm teas

Very strict diet of no Sugar and refined processed foods.

I always make up my own personal prescriptions depending on the ailment.

When the chickenpox struck I gave garlic (Kyolic liquid not capsules!) Rubbed down twice a day with olive oil, Cod Liver oil. My son was absolutely covered in spots, but didn't itch or have any puss up and turn gross.

One thing for our decisions with alternative and natural medicine is that my husband and I were both sickly children, immunized and over-used antibiotics - however we just grew sicker.....go figure!
