Why did I buy Bonjela Teething Gel? At the age of 3 months I noticed Isabella may have started teething. The signs were there like rosey cheeks, grizzling and dribbling alot more. So I went upto my local Sainsbury's and bought this for around £3.00. I brought it home and used it straight away. Did it Work? It did work and stopped Izzy from grizzling but at that age I think they dont really know what they want. However as she approaches ...
...am noticing I'm using it more as she is finding the back teath harder to deal with. The other night she cried all the way through and the only thing that stopped her was the bongela. It sent her off to sleep for a good 6 hours after use. The taste Isabella loves the taste of Bonjela, she has no problem taking it at all. How to use Gently squeeze a pee sized amount onto your clean finger and gently rub ontop the baby's gums. Then put the ...

Rid Yourself Of Nasty Nits

Advantages: Really Works. Mild
Disadvantages: ---------

...cabinet and reached for the Derbac M. There are several lotions and potions that can be purchased to get rid of these pests however I opted for this particular lotion as my son suffers from mild asthma and sensitive skin. The pharmacist recommended this particular product as it had been developed specifically with these issues in mind. I believe the product cost around £5.99 it certainly wasn’t any more than this as I can remember being surprised ...
...of these treatments can often be in excess of £10!!. The product comes packaged in an outer white cardboard box. It states on the box the name of the product and that it is suitable in the treatment of Head Lice, Crab Lice and Scabies. In addition this could work out good value for money as it can treat up to four heads so an ideal product if the whole fmily is affected in the sense that it is cost-effective. The product itself comes in a brown medicine ...

Make them feel better FAST

Advantages: Easy doses
Disadvantages: Expensive

...ages. Calpol Fastmelts each contain 250mg of Paracetamol in a strawberry flavoured tablet. The tablets dissolve in the mouth so the children just have to suck them, they dissolve very quickly, probably 15 seconds or so for each one. As they contain paracetamol they have all the usual warnings about leaving 4 hours between doses and not taking more than 4 doses in a day, also not using for more than 3 days without consulting a doctor. The tablets ...
...child. The dose for children 6-12 is 1 or 2 tablets and for older children (and adults) it is 2 to 4 tablets. The tablets are presented in a tough foil blister pack. It is not possible to push the tablets through the blisters as they will crumble and break. To get them out you have to pierce the foil on the back- I find this easy just with my fingernail- and then peel it back to reveal the white tablet. My children both tell me that the strawberry ...

Colic Relief is No Laughing Matter

Advantages: Helps baby pass wind and burp up gas
Disadvantages: None to speak of

...WHAT IS IT? Infacol is an orange flavoured syrup, administered by mouth, which, according to the box, is formulated to relieve wind, colic and pain caused by infant gripe. It comes in a 50ml bottle with a handy dropper built in to the cap. To administer it, you draw up the liquid into he dropper and administer it (0.5ml) before each feed. This can be increased to two dropperfulls (1ml) if necessary. It is suitable for use from birth (gripe ...
...Added to the fact that Infacol is sugar, alcohol and colouring-free, it makes it a safe solution for colic. For those, like me, who want to know exactly what their baby is consuming, the other ingredients are purified water, hypromellose (a thickening agent often used as an alternative to animal gelatine), saccharin sodium (a sweetening agent), E218 and E216 (both of which are preservatives). DOES IT WORK? The first test was whether Baby H ...

Kids Love Calpol Fastmelts

Advantages: easy to be administered, clean to keep, kids love it.
Disadvantages: none so far

...having our daughter Gargi swallow Calpol in liquid form. No matter what flavour it is she would protest. Now suddenly I found fastmelts in boots and thought to give it a try. I tried it myself first to see how it is and it melted in my mouth in less than a minute and though it may go down well. And to our joy Gargi, our daughter loved it. Now it has been two episodes of fever and she has taken fastmelts without any fuss. They are so convenient to ...
