Which Panadol to give?

I’m so confused. My bub is 14 months, and there are 2 Panadols.
Paracetamol 100mg/ml 1month - 1year
Paracetamol 24mg/ml 1year - 5year

Please suggest!!!!

My boy is 13 months and I give him the 1-5 years 24mg/ml. The 100mg is a higher concentrate so the ml dosage is smaller than the 24. If your baby doesn’t take well to taking medicine then go for the 100, as the 24 is quite a lot

Hi, Pharmacist here 🙋🏼‍♀️They can have either. You just have to base it off their weight. Pros of having the 100mg/ml is that they will have an lower amount to ingest because it’s more concentrated so it may be easier to dose your child, con is that you’ll go through it quicker because there are only 20mls in it. You should be dosing 15mg/kg. So 15mg x (body weight in kg) / 100mg = the amount of mls for the 100mg/ml. Hope this helps x

Looking for a friend

Hi, I’m Zainab from Nigeria 🇳🇬. I’m 18, and I have a 1.5-year-old daughter. ❤️

I’m looking for a friend I can chat with regularly, call, share gossip and little moments with, and talk about anything and everything! 🥹💗

Please don’t comment if you’re going to ghost me 😂😭. Age doesn’t matter to me as long as we genuinely connect! And I don’t mind long distance

This is what I look like. 😊💕

The C word 🎄

I know we are in the depths of post partum but has anyone had thoughts on Christmas presents? We are keeping it low key because LO has zero idea what is going on but I wanted to still get something for his first Christmas. He is a second child so a lot of your standard baby toys we have but has anyone else got some ideas 🎄

Losing friends

Hi, has anyone had to deal with losing friends since having their little one and how do you deal with it? I am a massive overthinker and am struggling to just not get upset by it.
I am so lucky and loving every moment with my little one but struggling with not letting the loss of the friends affect me. Any advice welcome please
