My mom use to put rum in my bottle when I was an infant to get me to sleep.

These days, if word of that ever got out she would probably be arrested for 'child abuse'.

It probably worked just fine and, in the amounts she used, posed no health risk.  Another sad reflection of the hysteria of our times.

Actually she claims the pediatrician told her to do that, sometimes I wonder though : )
