[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, you physically squeeze her jaw open. Tell her she can either throw a huge fit and make a scene and waste a half hour having a temper tantrum, or she can sit in your lap and get it done and over with in three seconds, and after that she can have a lollipop - it's her decision. But either way, she's getting a throat culture. Untreated strep can lead to heart infections.[/quote] I agree, and to get them to open their mouth, you can pinch their nose closed. For my dd when she realized it was absolutely going to happen with or without her cooperation, then she stopped fighting so hard.[/quote]
