Now that you’re a mom, you realize how often your kids cry and get hurt (hint: EVERY DAY!). Whether it’s a simple boo boo or something that requires a little more care, you don’t want to find yourself in a situation where you need a supply that you don’t have. But what exactly do you need to keep in that medicine cabinet of yours? There are so many options to choose from! Whether you’re a “crunchy” mama or one that takes a more Western-approach to medicine, we’ve got a great list of must haves that anyone can put to good use. The key is to stock your medicine cabinet now, not when you have a sick or hurt child at your feet!

1. Hydrogen Peroxide
You’ll find hydrogen peroxide in your first aid section of your local store and for really cheap. It is most widely used as an antiseptic for small wounds, and is oh so fun to watch bubble as it kills those germs. You can use it as a mouthwash when diluted properly and can be dropped into the ear canal to help break up large pieces of ear wax, prevent swimmers ear, and treat painful ear infections. A definite for your cabinet!
