Benadryl at Night

My almost 4 year old son has been waking up at night with a stuffy/blocked nose. I have given him Benadryl 1 tsp. for the last two nights and he has slept through the night without getting up.

I am already waking up at least twice in the night due to my 5 month old and could really use some sleep!

Itchy Skin While Running on the Treadmill

Hi! I hope someone else has this problem and a solution. All my life every time I run whether it be indoors or out, I usually can't go too long because my skin will itch terribly. It is only on my stomach and thighs, but I get so miserable that I have to stop. I have tried a few lotions, maybe I'm using the wrong ones. Please help I'd like to stay on the treadmill for longer than 20-30 minutes! :)
