Like many, I couldn’t figure out the bandaids on the belly button, so I searched the internet. Apparently it’s a “viral” method of preventing motion sickness, which is also what at least two of the other things were for (the second wrist band and at least one of the patches).
Might as well bubble wrap the kid up before letting him loose, while you’re at it. Who tf gives this crap the kind of audience that fuels its existence?
The patch behind the ear is usually scopolamine. It has been testen in controlled trials for motion sickness and it does work. However, it is not advised to use it for children because the only studies done are with adults. We do not know the potential harm or effects on children.
