It’s the middle of the night, and you’re awakened by your baby’s wail. Keeping all of his/her medications in the same spot all the time can make a tough and stressful situation just a little bit easier. Even though this sounds like an obvious thing to do, it’s too easy to just leave a bottle by the sink because you get distracted only to really need it and not remember where it is. Taking the extra few steps to put baby meds where they belong saves you time and headaches in the future-guaranteed.
Don’t forget:
Always keep meds out of reach of little hands. Even though new babies can’t grab them right away, they’ll be able to sooner than you think. It’s better just to designate a safe spot right from the get-go so you don’t have to move them later.
Put baby meds in a convenient spot and right within your reach when you most need them. We found the best place for us was above our son’s changing table.
Keep baby meds separate from your meds. Not only is it safer, you also won’t have to go rifling through the medicine cabinet to find what you need.
