Antibiotics

I would wait until 00:30 and wake him up then if he doesn't on his own

Also can I ask which antibiotic you got?

Does he normally wake up around that time? If not you should wake

Can u not give it to them whilst they're asleep kind of like a dream feed? Just sit then up a lil and do it slowly that's what I did with my lil guy never had any problems

Antibiotics have to be taken correctly to work, so I'd be waking him up

How about changing the times of administration like 6am, 2pm and 10pm?

My sons also on amoxicillin for an ear infection and I was told just to evenly space them throughout the day (atleast 4 hours apart) so he gets his a 8am, 2pm and 8pm then there's no holding off bedtime or waking him up to take them

Yeah amoxicillin for their age is every 12hrs. My son had tons of ear infections and ended up getting tubes. The next day you can push it back an hour (instead of 12pm or 12am, it'll be 11am/11pm and then again the following day until you're on an earlier schedule. Whenever my son needed antibiotics, we would align it when he woke up and for when he would go to sleep so 7am/7pm or 9am/9pm for example.

we’ve been told I need give this to him every 8hrs 3times a day x

I do the same idea as - space them evenly during the day when he’s awake!

Yeah that’s what I wanted to do on day1 but the doctor at a&e said every 4 or a bit longer hours and then the pharmacist says 8hrs 🤦🏻‍♀️ it’s driving me insane 🤣🤦🏻‍♀️

When we were on amoxicillin, we were told to space them out evenly throughout the day, and that is was not necessary to wake her up (she was only 3 months then though). I think it was a minimum of 4 hours apart?? We did something like 6am, 1pm, 8pm

But I’d follow whatever directions you were given tbh.

I'm a children's nurse and you can evenly space it throughout the day sometimes doctors prescribe for 6am 2pm 10pm for 8 hour antibiotics. It's just about giving it spaced out to give the body time to process it. X

Thank you ladies for all the comments really appreciate it! I’ve rang them today and they said I can give it to him every 6-8 hrs x
