Hi, I've just booked a week away in Turkey. My LO will be 4 months, what mosquito repellant can you use and can the LO go into the swimming pool?

Hi, we're moving this to 'children's health' because we think you'll get more responses there.

Yes he can go in the swimming pool but avoid the hottest part of the day and get him one of those all-in-one swimsuits and a wide brimmed hat. Remember that sunlight reflects off concrete and water and a baby can get burned even when in the shade.

Mosiguard is safe to use in babies over 3 months old and is reported to be very effective.

Have a lovely holiday Smile
