He rejected his normal milk after I tried to give him Isomil (lactose-free) when he had diarrhea. Luckily his rejection din last long. Pheww... I oso like to mix med into his milk. He can be quite strong for me to hold him down sometimes (when need to force feed). Oni thing to worry when the milk doesn't cover the med's taste. N they reject the milk althogether. Hmmm... I din know kids r normally dewormed at 2 yo. Must ask my paed the next visit. <strong>Joyce says: The milk rejection was what I was afraid of at first. I don't know if it is common practice to deworm kids, though if it is not necessary, I wouldn't mind either.</strong> It happened to my boy.
