So, yes, I’ve given both of my kids pain medicine and if you had told me that your daughter had broken out in hives and a doctor recommended 3mL of Benadryl and as a side effect you got the best night of sleep you’ve had in weeks, I’d give you a high five and be happy for you. I think I’d still be a little concerned that she’s still sleeping.
I mean the label on Benadryl seems pretty clear. Don’t give it to children under two, so I wouldn’t have without being told to by a doctor and then they’d need to explain why it was ok.
