Love this for myself and my husband... Wouldn't use on baby just yet ( Or prob for a while). We do use this almost every-night to help with better breathing on winter nights. Mar 05, 2023

This helped me recover fast when I’d get sick postpartum. I wanted something that worked fast because I didn’t want to get my newborn sick Jul 12, 2019

A lifesaver for when you’re sick and can’t breathe. We have the adult and baby version of vick’s and they both allow for easy breathing during cold and flu season. Apr 04, 2019

Love it for myself, but have heard it is SO BAD for littles. Read articles and talk to DR before use. Heard it worked backwards for a baby and clogged her respiratory system more (hospital or death) Nov 21, 2018

This truly helps relieve congestion and stuffy noses. I do not know what I would do during nighttime without this product. Smells great and feels good, too. Oct 24, 2017

Nothing is better than Vicks when you, SO, or LO is stuffy! Life hack: I also put it on my son's feet when he has painful growth spurts! No clue why but it relieves the pain in the bottom of his feet! Oct 20, 2017

Classic and necessity. You can't do much for your baby when they have a cold, but you can use this. One of my babies love it. She gasps,"ahh" once I put it on every time. That makes me happy! Mar 08, 2017

The old wives' tale: Put a little vick on your child's feet, cover with socks and they coughing will decrease. Definitely worked for us, but make sure not to use on the little little guys! Dec 03, 2014
