Hi,
DH and I are desperate... does anyone have experience of a 1-year-old on a penicillin variety for an inflamed upper respiratory tract? (close to tonsillitis)
DS has been on 5ml 4x a day for 3 days, slept for the first 2 days and has thankfully been awake all of today - much like his old self (sigh of relief from his parents!).
BUT...
... he now can't/won't go to sleep. He refused two naps today (v unusual) and has basically screamed since 7pm when we tried to put him to bed as normal.
He. Is. So. Tired.
DH read that penicillin can mask the pain, so DS now associates sleep with pain... DH is currently driving DS around in the car in the hope he'll go to sleep, something we haven't done since week 3 of his life!!!
