What would be good to have in the medicine cabinet/first aid kit for a infant? i would like to make one up for a baby shower gift
A doctor has provided 1 answer
First aid kit: I would include a thermometer, fever fighting medication like Ibuprofen or tylenol (acetaminophen). Diaper cream and possible antifungal cream as well as antibiotic ointment.. Band aids and q-tips are helpful. Liquid Benadryl might also be useful.
