Hi, i agree with vatsalya.. Dont use any repellants in any form in the entire house. They are known to cause allergies and cough. Avoid any repellant till atleast one year.
Regarding mosquito nets, be sure to replace them every 6 to 8 weeks since they accumulate dust and can cause allegies if kept below a ceiling fan.

hello,
i am having a son who is 4.5 months old.we were adviced by his paedetrician that not to use mosquito repellants if he is in the room.best way to avoid mosquitoes is to keep the baby in the mosquito net. still if you want to use repellants burn them (jet mats or Allout)when the baby is not in the room.

RE:How to Develop a Sleep Routine for your Newborn
According to me this is good but then you cannot force your child to sleep as per your wish as kids as really bad in this and they have a tendency to sleep in day and get up in late night so according to me this is not the key to success, please post if i am wrong.... - Anita [View Message]
