meds

which kinds are best and which kinds should i be sure to have before i bring babies home?-- asumeing there are no allergies

 

I had infant tylenol and mylicon {for gas}] :good: Those were the only two {over the counter} meds I used for the first six months.

 

What she said!

Add in infant motrin once babies are 6 months old, it works better for fevers and for teething than tylenol does!

 

I would also add Gripe Water. Babies R Us sells it but it's a better quality from a health food store. Some ppl say it's a joke, but some swear by it. I am one that swears by it! My dd was colicky and that was the only thing that calmed her down for even a little bit (in conjunction with the movement). It worked for DS's gas, too.
