General Anesthetic MRI Scan

Hi All,

My 19 month old is having a GA MRI Scan on this Friday and need to starve since Thursday's midnight. He is used to drink milk twice before 7AM, whereas he can only drink milk till 2:30AM. I'm worried on how to cope with the situation. They said he can drink water/ squash before 6:30AM. Suggestions please.

TIA.

Had to do this a lot with my DS. Wake up in the middle of the night for the last possible drink of milk. Then that's it - just comfort your little one and give water until the latest possible time. Also petition the nurses nicely for you to be 'first on the list'. Good luck for the MRI.
