thoughts on giving 1/4 ibprofen/paracetemol if no calpol?

[stretchmark]

i dont kno if this is totally absurd so posting here for advice, basically no money till tomorrow and no 1 to borrow the measily 3 quid from, my ds is 14 months and teething terribly and not sleeping or eating so the thought has crossed my mind to give him 1/4 of ibprofen??

Has any 1 ever done so?

Too young. Unless you can weigh it, you might overdose him. I've done it to my 6 year old, but wouldn't to A baby.

My friend was recently in the same situation and put A shout out on facebook, and someone popped over with an eggcup full out of her own bottle.

Try giving him cold milk instead of warm, and a couple of frozen chips to nosh on.

Just nipped next door but she was out, good thinking tho,thanx will try again later!

Knew it was worth asking on here!!

Thank you!!!
