Giving medicine

[Kylie1007]

After ending up bring covered in sticky pink Calpol, I hunted out my medicine dummy that was given to me by the people at sure start & it's SO GOOD!!! Not a drop is wasted and he just sucks it out in his own time! Def worth investing in - these seem v expensive on this website but you get the idea! The medicine goes in that clear bit and there's a tube through the teat that the medicine comes out. There's also a plunger, like a syringe, in case they're reluctant to suck it out!

Yeah I 've seen these. Think they are the best solution. Haven't got one but am tempted every time the Calpol comes out.

I got one of these from the chemist at our local asda and was only £1.23!

Have you noticed that the smallest amount of calpol gets everywhere!!!

Never even heard of these. I was given a syringe by the chemist for free. Baby rather likes it and hangs onto it with both hands sucking away at it. Much easier than any spoon, which she has a tendency to try and feed herself with.
