Thats good news!

I found that my DD was in a lot of pain until the scabs fell off about Day 10, so we were constantly alternating between the calpol and nurofen. Little and often is best rather than 3 meals a day.

One word of warning - do not give her any fruit or fruit juices. Its like drinking real acid!
