I am currently putting various creams on my 19 mo DS. Several times a day, on various patches over his body. But he squirms and squirms, and I'm there with the tube of cream in one hand and cream on the end of finger on the other, and he's screaming now and trying to crawl away....
What do I do? It's like battling with the Minotaur. And we both come out of it drained and exhausted. And God knows if I'm actually getting any cream anywhere it should be.....
How do other parents/carers manage it? (I don't have anyone to help, or at least not often)
