Thx everyone, last nite was abit better than the night before she and i got abit more sleep still woke up and was abit warm this morning, not as hot as she has been tho.. she still wouldnt have her breakfast so tried her on some jelly/ fluids and managed to get abit into her.. shes keeping her fluids up to which is gd shes still really sleeepy/drowsy tho.
I'm trying the alternating between the panadol and nurefen, im actually finding the panadol to be better as i dont have to wait as long to give it to her
nurofen is every 6-8hours and panadols every 4hours.
shes still attatched to me by the hip, i actually dont remember the last time i went to the toilet by myself lol,
im actually starting to feel not 100% myself really off but its probbly just lack off energy etc
Thanks heaps for your support ive been pretty lucky so far for her to make it this far to have only been really sick like this now at 17months. xx
Someone suggested staggering the panadol and nurofen..... Definately agree to that one. My DD1 used to get raging temps at 40 to 41.5..... she was one sick little girl for the most part of the first 2 years of her life. The Pediatrician told me to give her panadol and 2 to 3 hours later give her the nurofen..... BUT the biggest thing to remember is that Nurofen is really bad for an empty stomach so you need to make sure you get a little something into her, a little biscuit or toast or anything she will eat. The reason being is that it irritates their stomach, causing pain and discomfort.
Not a lot of people are aware of that, and really the dr's and chemists need to be explaining this to people when we buy it, but I guess that's the way things are, we have to find these things out by chance most of the time IYKWIM lol
