When baby spits out medicine

Does anyone has a good technique for giving medicine from a dropper. DS is sick of ibuprophen and has been spitting it out. I'm not even sure how much he took inChat Icon

Also, diapers are still wet but hes not drinking as well. Was at ped on tuesday and he said it was a virus. At the time he was drinking better.Chat Icon

Not sure if this is how you are doing it already, but the doc told us to squirt it slowly on the inside of his cheek. Good luck

Re: When baby spits out medicine

oh gosh did I have trouble with this too.
I found that if i put it in the middle sort of back of her mouth and talked to her in a high voice. i actually found it so much easier when my husband helped.
I feel your pain and hope your little one gets better real fast!!

oh and I also had a spoon to catch any of the med that fell out.

i usually just mix it in with an ounce of formula & feed it to DS in a tiny bottle right before his regular bottle
