Insect Repellant for babies
I am going to South Africa this week, LO will be 5 months old.
I react really really badly to mozzie bites.
I am SUPER paranoid about LO being like me and reacting badly. (my OH never ever gets bitten)
I have seen this Insect Repellent
http://www.boots.com/en/Boots-Repel-Insect-Repellent-Wipes-childrens-6-months--15-wipes_12317/
It is from 6 months +, my LO will be 5 months......I really dont know if I should take it just in case. I am sure they have stuff out there but as a 'back up'. I have got mozzie nets and plug in for the room at night.
Thoughts please and any recommendations??

I think I will just play it by ear, if he starts getting bitten I will try it (patch test) and then see how it goes. He might be one of the lucky ones who doesnt ever get bitten
