Have her wear a plastic bib and a spoon on hand to catch the spilled "on accident" bit. BTW don't mixed it too much with water, they will spit it out more. Then have her wash it down with water.

Amelia is on 0.7mg on every other day (and will be adjusting soon due to her growth spurt) and I mix 1 mg warfarin tablet with 1 ml of water. It is very concentrated but I give the suspension a good shake to be sure it is uniformly suspended in water. So far it has been stable only when she has growth spurt.
I am so thankful that she is thriving after her surgeries. Best of all we got the new CoaguChek XS. It's such a neat little thing!

What a wonderful, wise and patient mother you must be!:) :) :)
