We just got into the malaria area from the highlands. We have been advised only to use Calpol (baby paracetamol) only one every eight hours, Wait and see, but do not use and sp (sulphamene pyrodoxine). What risks should I know about for an otherwise fighting fit smiling infant? She could have malaria; we are using a prophylaxis (250mg one dose per week).

HOW YOUNG CAN YOU TAKE A BABY OUT OF THE COUNTRY?
Mar 25th
Question by Frankie Baby 82:
How young can you take a baby out of the country?
I am due in November of this year, and my sister is planning her wedding in March, at which point the baby will be 4 months old. She is getting married in the Carribbean. I can’t possibly miss her wedding, (I’m a bridesmaid!) and my partner staying home is not an option (can’t go to a wedding without a date!) Is 4 months too young for international travel? I worry about malaria, and viruses that he/she will not yet be immunized for. But I can’t bear the thought of leaving a brand new baby at home, especially since I want to breastfeed as long as possible.
Obviously I have thought of a passport. I have an extra application from when I got mine, just waiting for a name, birthdate, and SS# to go with it! I am more concerned with the health risks specific to the Virgin Islands.
