We generally take things pretty calmly. This was our first trip to the ER. I believe most parents will have had multiple false alarms like this after 5 years.
We usually start with something non-medicinal first, like the calcium supplement in this case, and then move onto a low dose of children's medicine if that doesn't work. Most people we know would go straight to the full dose of medicine.
I think it's great that they're taking things calmly. Medication is something that needs to be handled very carefully, especially with children. How old is your daughter? 5 years old?

Yep

5 is an incredible age, especially because they are very curious, and it is even scarier because since they are small, any pain, anything should obviously worry them, but don't worry, once again I tell you, enjoy parenthood and take good care of your little girl.
