A website on children’s health that even I can like

By Know-it-All Nikki Leave a Comment

Since I’m not a parenting expert, (but that’s not stopped me from giving advice on parenting), I am always on the look out for people in the know on kids issues and health. Everyone has different opinions on how to raise and foster children’s’ development and I find that when I come in contact with someone knowledgeable and savvy on kids issues, I take in the information like a sponge. But sometimes it’s hard for me to find an expert that I like or can believe in.

Dr. Tanya is not one of those people. Not only is she a pediatrician and but she’s an author and a mom. Her advice and knowledge of kids health is refreshing and something that I can apply to my own family. While many of Dr. Tanya’s blog posts also appear at WebMD, I love how she actually replies back to comments that she receives, many parent experts don’t take the time to do that!

I’ve enjoyed reading posts on everything from eczema (something Peanut has been plagued with – good to know he can outgrow it!), to summer injuries and preparing our kids for cyberspace (you know how I am about the tweens and kids online). It’s hard for me to find information that I like because my kids are older and many experts cater to new moms only; Dr. Tanya offers me information that I can actually apply to my four kids and their different range in ages.

In our day and age of parenting it’s nice to see that some medical and parenting advice is never outdated and regardless of what I think I know about something, Dr. Tanya shows me that there is always more to learn (like I had no clue Peanut could outgrow the eczema! I thought we were stuck with it for life). And if I ever feel like I have a burning parenting or medical question I can ask Dr. Tanya and she’ll answer my question on her blog (I love answering my own readers’ questions too).

For more on Dr. Tanya you can check out her Facebook page or follow her on Twitter.

Hi there!

I’m Nikki and I’m thrilled to have you here. I’m powered by a good chai latte, loads of chocolate, and humor. Here at Know-it-all Nikki, I dish up honest conversations about self-care and mental health. I also share living with a congenital heart defect, my love of books, knitting, midlife, and life as a Buckeye exploring The Last Frontier. So, pull up a seat, grab your tea, and let’s spill some tea, have a lot of laughs, and a few good cries. To learn more about what makes me tick, CLICK HERE

I didn't think i would need a laptop today. Turns I didn't think i would need a laptop today. Turns out I was slightly wrong. Prepared as always with all my electronics, I'm thankful my kindle was fully charged as was the keyboard because my tablet definitely wasn't... Sure, I have pen and paper but that's for brainstorming! I was also in need of my favorite chai!

Hanging with my former office manager at the satel Hanging with my former office manager at the satellite location has made me realize that time marches on with or without us. Eventually we all move a little slower, our hair color fades, and our age begins to show, both inside and out.

But age is just a number and a state of mind. Our people see past the surface and love what's underneath and that's really all that matters.

Last appointment is an ECG, heart cath site check, Last appointment is an ECG, heart cath site check, and who know what else is planned? My doctors often joke they don't get to see me enough so when they have me, they want to spend as much time with me as they can. 🤣🤣 They are sooo lucky I like them!

Have I ever told you how much I hate needles? If n Have I ever told you how much I hate needles? If not, let me explain.

A childhood of being poked, held down, crying over the feeling of a needle under my skin has left me traumatized to the point of even feeling lightheaded, dizzy, and nauseous at times. 

The very idea that I have to do this to myself twice a day for the next week makes me want to vomit. I begged them to not make me do it but when I told the NP how I felt, ugh... it was dismissed. 

Wasnt there another option? Apparently not as warfarin isn't reliable (current blood thinner) or so I have been told. 

I've been told this doesn't hurt and that I won't feel a thing but I've been lied to before.

If you don't hear from me in the morning, there's a good chance I fainted and cracked my head open on the floor.
