I hope your baby is ok soon and just needs rest. Try to keep her confined to a small area
Thanks for the note - that's what so great about this place - everyone is so helpful. Luckily she did, and it's really difficult with Bridget because she doesn't really eat a meal (so to speak)...she's more of a grazer! So I sit and hand feed her some of her food then give the meds, then feed more just to be sure her tummy's not empty. She takes the meds so great - I just wish she was as willing to rest. She's like an energizer bunny....No one slept at my house last night - trying to be sure she was either "up" or "down" from where she wanted to be....about 100 times...lol!!!
Thanks again - you can never be too sure that instructions are always given correctly!
