DD2 is driving me insane, she's on anti biotics AGAIN for another double acute ear infection. She needs 3 doses of that plus alternating calpol and nurofen.
We can get some into her mouth and then she just holds it there, crying with her mouth shut. We've tried blowing in her face (good for newborns apparently), tried stroking from her chin down her neck (the vet advised this for our dog!) and sitting her up, lying her down.
Tonight it took 25 minutes, she just doesn't give in at all.
GGRRRrrrrr, does anyone know a sneaky way to get up to 15ml's into her??
