| hi all, Ava's really bothered with her teeth tonight, I gave her 3.5 ml of calpol at 7 pm and she's been hysterical for the past hour, is it too early to give her another dose now,she seems in such discomfort .
Thanks x |

| hey - have you got any ibuprofen for babies? paracetamol didnt work with eli the other week but the ibuprofen did (only 2.5ml so half a dose) just a thought. its just about 4 hours though for the calpol so should be fine |

| what weight is she hun? I could work out her exact dosage for you (or have you already one that with the 3.5ml?) Its a min of 4hrs between doses, so yeah you can just about give her the next dose! |

| thanks michelle, how many ml would you suggest, she's 8 months this week (16lb 10 oz). I've tried bonjela and nothings helping tonight.
I have got ibuprofen but i'm not sure whether to give that when i've already given calpol. |

| thanks all, typical she's settled now, she's got herself overtired, I think I'll give her a bit more if she wakes up. |

| Righty ho, she can have 10-15mg per kg weight 16lb roughly equates to 7.25kg so..... she can have between 3ml & 4.5ml every 4-6 hours and yes you can give ibuprofen at the same time so give 2.5ml every 6-8hrs Hope this helps x |
