Two Questions

in Success after IF
And one of them is stupid.......but LO is finally sitting up in her bathtub..... My question, what's the best way you ladies have found to wash hair? She kind of freaks if and when the water gets in her eyes and I have not figured out how to avoid this in the sitting position......question 2 - for @ccam and any others who have used Benadryl - do they make an infant Benadryl or just a children's!?!? I want to try it but am not sure what to buy!!!! Thanks ladies :)

    My guy likes the water getting in his face because he thinks sneezing is hilarious. But I have also just laid him down flat to rinse his hair before. Just don't have a lot of water in the tub. I have also had something fun for him to look up at so his head is tilted back and I rinse at the same time. GL.

    I start singing a song or making animal noises to get them to look up. I have a soft cup for dumping water. Sometimes they'll freak, but they usually get distracted by something else a second or two later.

    Three TI cycles (BFP...miscarriage), five IUI attempts and 2.5 IVF cycles later...BFP!!
    12dp5dt: 765; 15dp5dt: 1979; 17dp5dt: 3379...TWINS!!!!!
