my mom thinks i should give my 18 month old a 1/2 dose of cough meds...he's 30lbs and so she says he's big enough and that she used to give it to us and he would be fine.   wwyd?
1 chemical and 1 loss at 9 weeks prior to DS
IVF #1 1/10-transfered 2 blasts- DS born 10/2010

Trying for # 2 since 2012.  2 failed FETS 1 failed IUI.
IUI#2 4/14/14-- BFP !!!!! Beta #1 14dpiui= 45 Beta #2 16dpiui= 80  Beta #3 18dpiui= 88 (chemical pregnancy)
March 2015- Chemical pg

1/25/16- BFP  Beta1 12dpo = 17, Beta 2 14 dpo = 28.. resulted in one beautiful boy born 9/21/16 :)

Now I'm a stay at home loving life and pursuing my love of photography!!!

    He probably would be fine, but with that said I still wouldnt do it. We still havent given Brady any cough meds and he is 4.

    What kind of meds are you thinking of?  I've been giving both girls Hyland's whenever they have a bad cough.
    Pregnant with #1 with PCOS and LPD, success with mostly naturopathic treatments

    I should have mentioned we use the natural ones too, they are mostly made up of honey and a few other things. I am not sure if it really helps, but at least I feel like I am doing something.

    Hope your LO feels better soon!

    I have been giving Dillon honey for his bad cough (thanks Babs) and it doesn't stop the cough all together, but it does not sound as harsh as it does when I don't give it to him.
    A lot of years and a million tears finally led me to you.
    After 7 years trying to concieve, 3 failed IUIs and 2 failed IVFs, my third IVF was a success!
    My Christmas baby turned into a turkey bird! Dillon Richard was born at 34 weeks, 5 days on November 28, 2009 after 10 weeks on bedrest for preeclampsia.
