Wintertime Prevention, Cold Remedies, and Facts on the Coronavirus

All of us here at Mom Jeans and Minivans hope everyone out there is healthy and safe in this uncertain time of the Coronavirus pandemic. This week's episode was already recorded when the Coronavirus struck. An excerpt was added on the Coronavirus at the beginning of this episode as it related to this week's topic on wintertime preventions. We did some research on our own and noticed there was a lot of false information out there about the Coronavirus, so we wanted to provide you with some facts from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Know the symptoms, when to seek medical attention, and how to differentiate between the common cold and the virus.

This episode is chock full of information on fighting back against the common cold and flu and is on the list of Morgen & Trisha’s most favorite episodes. The ladies do their best to provide the girls with balanced meals, leaning heavily in the fruit and veggie categories. And now that Charlie & Remi are a bit older (cue tears streaming down the cheek at the mention of them getting older), the supplements they are given has changed, which is discussed. 

There is no avoiding the common cold, so when it does strike at home Morgen & Trisha have some useful remedies you’ll want to take note of. Let’s just say that homemade chicken noodle soup might be the hidden cure for the common cold, seriously! It’s a must-try. Did you know there is an essential oil you can add to a humidifier that helps with congestion? Listen in to find out what it is. Local honey! Trisha is a huge believer in the healing effects and speaks on how it has been a game-changer in her home. Ever hear of Oogiebear? Neither had Morgen & Trisha until Trisha’s sister had her baby shower and received it as a gift. You’re not going to want to miss this episode, especially with the momfessions talking about some of their most unsanitary mom fails.
