The poor thing just cries all night and will only be held, but still wakes continuously. He's on piriton twice a day, calpol every 4-6hrs, 3 bicarbonate of soda baths and Virasoothe. Anything else to help him sleep?!?! We're on day 5, he's covered in spots but I think they've stopped coming now.
My 2yo was very poorly with it, but she slept through the night with the help of piriton for the itching. My 6mo's entire scalp is plastered, then head to foot too, and he can't seem to sleep a wink. My dh is away at a wedding tomorrow night, so just thinking how I can keep us both in one piece!!! I feel so sorry for the poor thing.
