Carry all the medicines that you might be needing. This is very important to remember, especially if your child is under a certain medication. Never assume that your kid’s medicine is available to your destination. It will be a real hassle if it is not. Bring sufficient or more than the needed supply. Pack over the counter medicine and a first aid kit as well.
Stop making conclusions. Refrain from linking your child’s illness to the travel. It would not help to just make assumptions. If your child gets a fever, it does mean that she acquired dengue or malaria. Just proceed with doing what is supposed to be done when your child is sick, then consult a doctor.
Always have extra cash with you. It is essential that you bring additional when traveling with kids. If someone gets sick, you will need to pay the doctor’s fee in local currency. If the doctor gave prescription, you will have to purchase them using the local currency. If you do not carry enough, that would only add to the stress.
Do you own checks. As a mother, you have the opportunity to personally check if there is something wrong or with your child. You can regularly check the body temperature, if there are frequent sneezes and even the tonsil. Upon seeing the signs, you will be able to treat them right away. Do not assume that your kid is totally okay of he looks okay and active. Remember that kids are naturally active and do not even know that they are already sick, unless, it is already unbearable.
