It is not recommended to give painkillers to babies without consulting a pediatrician. Over-the-counter pain medications like acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil) are generally not recommended for infants under 6 months old, and they can be harmful if given in the wrong dose. If your baby is experiencing pain or discomfort, it is important to talk to a pediatrician to determine the best course of action. A pediatrician will take into account your baby's age, weight, and overall health, as well as the underlying cause of the pain, to determine the best treatment options.
