How do I comfort a 3 year old with a migraine?
I feel so awful about this because I passed my migraines on to my baby. She's only 3, but her pediatrician says she's having migraines. The first time, I found her hiding in a corner behind a chair, holding her head and crying. Thank goodness our pediatrician was in!
He told me to give her children's Advil and make her room dark and quiet. I'm also to give her children's Benadryl if the migraine is very bad or she's very restless or upset. I understand all of that, but thought maybe someone would have suggestions for comforting her while I pray that she goes to sleep until it's over. This would be hard no matter how old she was, but with her so very young, it's even harder.
Please help!
