I happen to be eatting a candy cane when my stomach was upset and my stomach settled down, so I tried it again and it worked, I still thought I was crazy so I thought I would ask you all. -------------------- Di ~ mommy to Kaitlin wife to David

I will have to remember that next time I am in a mood and try it.

Good to know I was not crazy and it works for others.

My SIL rubs peppermint oil on her tummy. Best way to absorb it, according to her. You can buy the oil at any natural foods store. -------------------- Rae SAHM to Wil (4) and Wesley (2) ~ Wife to Richard 10/20/01
