DD has had a dose around 9pm of 2.5 mls of infacol and then about 10 minutes later had some gripe water.

Please tell me this is ok and that they wont react with each other, IYSWIM??

Bollocks, i dont mean infacol, i mean CALPOL!!

I think the point of infacol is that it is completely inert so won't react to anything IYSWIM

I should think it will be fine, but I wouldn't make a habit of it

Oh calpol!
No that will be fine. There is no paracetamol in gripe water (or anything else much actually )

Thanx PPH - x-posted tho.

Oh phew!!!

She was screaming merry hell up there with her teeth and a bout of colic (which we haven't had for a while!).

We've been giving DD gripe water almost every night for months, often immediately followed by Calpol for her teeth. Never had the slightest problem. She's 8mo btw.

Hope she's feeling happier soon.
