Medicine/Bathroom Cabinet Must Haves

[WeThree]

As a mum, what do you always have in your bathroom/medicine cabinet? What do you consider the essentials and what would you recommend other mums always keep handy?
Mine are:

Demazin
Panadol
Bandaids
Paw Paw Cream
Asthma Puffer
Zyrtec or Phenergan
Cotton balls
Dettol Cream/normal dettol
Wheat bag
Sunscreen



I think that is all.....

That list is pretty much what we have too.

One thing that i have found fantastic over the past few weeks is the Vicks baby balsam ( over 6 months). Poor DS has had a bad cold and it has made such a big difference.

I would add baby oil to the list. Works great for moisturising skin and helping cradle cap. Olive oil would do the same thing.
I also keep childrens panadol, nurofen for the big kid (DF :D ), regular Panadol for me, aqueous cream, cotton balls, cotton tips, de-snotters and the saline drops, band aids, Dettol, the cream for burns and scratches, bonjela and a big block of cadburys dairy milk ;)
