Thanks for tips - & question about Aromatherapy

[Guest guest]

Just wanted to thank everyone for the advice and tips. I'm going to try some of

them, and see how it goes. Tonight actually went ok. She didn't fight us very

much. We went ahead and did it in her bed (like last night), but with the

lights off...just the light coming in from the hallway. I wonder if maybe that

helped calm her down, or if she was just in the mood to cooperate. I

dunno...but tonight was a lot better than last night.

Any of you ever do aromatherapy stuff in the room with your kids while doing

therapy? Did it help calm them down? Or should I avoid that sort of stuff

around her? I know some folks have problems with scented stuff (my mom and

sister are terribly allergic to most candles). I know it tends to calm me down.

Just thought about it.
