Help! Threadworm

[girlmama32]

Sorry for the horrible thread, I actually feel sick at the thought!
Tonight I was itchy down there and have discovered a couple of threadworms, I checked DD's soiled nappy and found one there too. She hasn't seem distressed, other than being up a few times last night at all, and this is the first time I've noticed them on myself, DH has no symptoms so I'm hoping I'll be able to get rid quickly.
Has anyone had to deal with this before? Am I right in thinking I'll need to treat everyone except DD? She's only 19 months.
I've no idea where we've got this from, I'm not usually screamish in the slightest but even the thought of these is just eugh!

Think ovex is for over age 2
Both you and your dh should take the treatment and then repeat 2 weeks later

You need to speak to your gp. Only recommended for over 2s bought over the counter but gp assesses on a case by case basis and will prescribe if ovex is safe for your child.
Mine had ot around 18 months and was prescribed. You can't just not treat DD or she will just have worms for months as well as pass it back to you

I will definitely give them a call tomorrow, thanks!
