Sleepy Little Girl. Something to get checked out?

Our first few weeks in Australia were quite full on in comparison to our quieter routine at home.

For the last week and a half Miss 2 has been blinking slowly a few times thoughout the day and has been quite obviously tired. We saw my naturopath last week and she has prescribed some homeopathics.

This week we have kept things very quiet with a little outing to the park or for coffee (& babycinos) yet I think she seems even more tired. Everything else is quite normal, she has the same sense of humour, loves to run around at the park or chase the cat here and is eating normally. She says she is not in any pain.

I am wondering if it is something I should get checked by a Dr and how on earth do I find a decent one here on the northside of Brisbane who has not closed their books to new clients.

Could be fighting off a cold? Jools has been the same this week, turns out she's got a cough/cold that just took a while to show symptoms other than tiredness.

Maybe get a tonic like Floradix Floravital into her?

That's interesting to know that Jools has had the same tiredness Em.

Is floravital a probiotic Nyree? I am interested in knowing a little more about it.

I didn't realise it was illness for Jools til she had a fever a couple of nights ago. She seems to have been gradually getting better since then. I'm giving her lots of Brauer Recovery Tonic and Cough Relief - just herbs and vitamins, but it might help her body fight it off.
