I'm on the verge of tears I just had to wake my baby up and fight him to take his medicine which I had to pay $100 for!!! He will not take it. I tried by the side of his mouth and everything. He will hold it in his mouth to spit it out at me!

My mom used to threaten to cram it down my throat. And one day I found she really did! Held my mouth open and squirted down super fast! My recommendation is to squirt it in his mouth and immediately give him water so he swallows.

@princessmama, I may have to try giving a drink real fast after. It's so hard to make him take it. He's 13 months I don't want to hurt him 😞

Did you try blowing on his face? or holding his nose for a few seconds? those usually work with my son

I never heard of blowing on their face! I'll try it when I have to give him the next dose at 6am. @guaderrama_babies2 thanks

@bonniesue, yeah that's what I do to him you have to blow hard on his face. The plugging of the nose is last resort but it works as well.

You can also put the medicine in his sippy cup perhaps. Idk if that'd change it compound or anything but I don't see how it can hurt at least he'll have it in his system:)

Yeah u can blow on his face I do that all the time, and u can also go buy this safety kit they have for babies at target or any store they sell baby products. It comes with a little bottle used for medicines. Works wonders! That's how I give my baby his medicine
