Hi R.. I was curious if you had tried Dayquil yet. It worked for me when I had the flu with my lil ones. I also wanted to say congrats on being a great mommy,if he wants to be a jackass then let him be a jackass, when your daughter grows up and is a smart, beautiful girl with a bright future he will want something to do with her and then she wont want anything to do with him. I went through this same situation when my oldest was born, shes now 11 so I have SURVIVED! I am in the Navasota Area, have alot of inlaws in the Stoneham/Plantersville area. Hope everything works out. Good Luck
