A mum's sanitary pad life-hack for her ill daughter has been praised by other mums, but looked on suspiciously by the woman's husband.

"Snotty baby needed something to help the congestion. Covered this in some Olbas Oil - works a treat." the mum wrote on Facebook before adding that her husband thought she had "finally lost it".

The woman put some decongestant oil on the pad and then placed it on a shelf abover her daughter's bed.

Fellow parents were quick to praise the mum's thinking...

"Brilliant, I will do this tonight," wrote one person.

"Brilliant idea, beats a bit of tissue!" added another.

"Genius! I am totally adopting that idea." said someone else

In an interview with Mirror Online the woman said "It was 3am and she couldn't breathe. I had the oil but no tissues, it didn't occur to me to use toilet roll."

"My husband was just confused as to why it was stuck onto the shelf. He thought I'd done it by accident without realising."

Now that's clever thinking!
