alright, thanks, i will give it a little more freely then. i only gave him 0.2ml, which is what we were instructed to give him when he was first born, after his circumcision. now that he's double the weight, makes sense to increase the dose, i just didn't want to do it without some input from my LIF ladies... thanks Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

I would check with your ped about the right dosage for your DS's weight.

Yes, the dosage is according to their actual weight.

I first gave it at three months and the doc asked their weight before telling me how much to give. I think he had a dosage chart.

i think it depends on baby's weight... when DD was 10lbs 6 oz (after her shots) ped told me 0.4 (twice a day) this past weekend, she had fever and ped said 0.8 is ok???

try the 0.4 - if no relief, call ped and ask Chat Icon Chat Icon hope he feels better. teething already???
