    Her leg may still be tender. my arm was for a day or so. You could give some tylenol or ibuprofen.

    Yes, we got the shot today. I was so up in the air about it. Mama RN - are you getting your LO's the shot?

    And .08 is the dosage we were told to give for Tylenol. 1.25 for Motrin.

    Thats what I thought, TY! Lo is asleep now, suposedly for the night. I dont have high hopes though. lol. She completely skipped an 8 oz bottle and was very crabby. How was JT about it?

    The dose should be 10mg/kg. I think you said DD is 18 lbs so it would be 80 mg, which is 0.8 ml in the concentrated bottles of Tylenol. I'm at work so I double checked it in our Pediatric Dosage Handbook.

    Hope she feels better soon! Although I'm enjoy her up at night pics ;)

    p & i both did this week, my arm flippin' hurt for a few days. p's was in his leg & so far he seems fine, although he fought me like crazy getting him in his carseat when we left the dr's office. i just tried to be a little careful with his leg yesterday in case it was more sensitive. his dr told us if it seems like it bothers him to apply warm compresses & move/pedal his legs a few times a day.

    He was great, although I took him by my Nanny's and he hung out with family and played so he didn't have time to get cranky. By the time we got home (hit a ton of traffic) we skipped his solid dinner and bath and he was asleep by 6:30pm until 4:15am when I fed him and then he went back down until a little after 6am. I did give Tylenol before bed.

    And my bad - I put .08 and it was .8 for Tylenol! Oops!! Although I think you knew what I meant!

    I think we're going to pass. We'll see what the pedi says Wednesday when we go for his check up. I can't wait to see how he's grown.

    We skipped her flu shot at her 9 month check up. Her pedi said she can get it at her 12 month check up. I've been undecided on whether to skip her flu shot or not.
