So i've got myself into a panic, i've got an 8 week old baby and (sorry TMI) but my bum is itching like crazy. I know it could be piles, but i'm a huge flap that is might be threadworms and that i'll give them to the little one. I cant take any meds because i'm breastfeeding, and i'm not even 100% it is that to be honest.

What do you do if a baby under 2 gets them? It seems that the mediaction that they used to use is now discontinued and ovex is only for over 2s!!!!

Treat yourself as a precaution, wash your hands thoroughly after the toilet, wash bedding and towels. Get some for you tomorrow, it'll be fine.
