How early should I deworm my child? And how do I get her prepared for it?

Doctors recommend to deworm children every 6 months from the first year of age. However some parents may begin the deworming at 6 months of age when they start to crawl around and get into contact with worms on the ground. If you suspect that your child may have worms, the doctor may do the following tests: -cotton swab test -ultrasound test -stool examination -sticky tape test -checking under fingernails Most deworming is done by administering oral medication so I do not think that you will need to prepare your child for anything though. http://www.babycenter.in/x1016994/is-it-important-to-get-my-two-year-old-dewormed
