Alternatively you could just be setting up a hatred of strawberry jam

which will take years to go away :-)))))

Feeling really cruel. I put todays dose in the medicine Dummy and

swapped it for his normal dummy in his sleep, and every 10 mins or so

squeezed it a bit to let some more dribble onto his mouth! It worked

he swallowed the lot!!! :-))))))))

His first full dose in 5 days and only 1 more to go, typical! I will

try it again when hi goes to bed. Why didn't I think of this 5 days

ago?

I was surprised when DS was ill in France. They routinely give

children suppositories. I was a bit taken aback as I'd never had to

administer them. Fortunately when I twigged it was actually

paracetamol just in a different form, I went back and gave him the

Calpol we had with us (which he drinks no probs).

I suspect they're probably much cheaper in France (but then most

things seem to be), but bit of a long trek just to save a few bob
