Girls, teach me what to do to prevent a child from throwing a tantrum while using a nebulizer? Cartoons, music, conversations, even our favorite cat doesn't help. I give it to him to hold so he can get used to it, but he throws it. When I put it on myself, he starts crying and runs to take it off me.

Try the following methods to help a child cope with using a nebulizer without tantrums: 1. Try involving a toy or a book that the child loves during the use of the nebulizer. This can distract their attention and make the procedure more enjoyable. 2. Try to create a special ritual during the use of the nebulizer, for example, allow the child to choose a special toy or blanket to hold during the procedure. 3. Try playing with the child during the use of the nebulizer so that they feel your support and involvement. 4. Discuss with the child why they need to use the nebulizer, explain how it will help them feel better. 5. If the child continues to have tantrums, try to gradually accustom them to the procedure, starting with short sessions and gradually increasing them. 6. It is also important to maintain a calm and patient atmosphere during the use of the nebulizer, so that the child feels comfortable and safe. If the problem persists, seek help from a doctor or a child psychologist to find an individual approach to the child and help them cope with the situation.

In our time, nothing helped us at your age. We just endured the tears, just to breathe a little, sometimes it calmed down, then started crying again and wiping with hands. If the crying was continuous, we would turn it off and put it off for later.

Oh, nothing helped, only when he was about 2 years old did he calm down and start repeating after us and doing things without tantrums.

I bought a silent one and he started sitting quietly. The noise of the compressor scared him.

With the older one, we just couldn't do it without tantrums; he simply ran away, I couldn't make him stay, so we had to have several people hold him down forcibly, so I only did it when he was asleep. I know that one should sit during the procedure, but we had no other option ?
