It goes by the weight of the child and only your doctor can tell you the right dosage. Get off the internet and call your child's doctor.

How should I take Tylenol?
Use Tylenol exactly as directed on the label, or as prescribed by your doctor. Do not use in larger or smaller amounts or for longer than recommended.
Do not take more of this medication than is recommended. An overdose of acetaminophen can damage your liver or cause death.
Measure liquid medicine with a special dose-measuring spoon or medicine cup, not with a regular table spoon. If you do not have a dose-measuring device, ask your pharmacist for one.
If you are treating a child, use a pediatric form of Tylenol. Use only the special dose-measuring dropper or oral syringe that comes with the specific pediatric form you are using. Carefully follow the dosing directions on the medicine label.
You may need to shake the liquid before each use. Follow the directions on the medicine label.
The Tylenol Meltaways chewable tablet must be chewed thoroughly before you swallow it. The tablet will soften in mouth for ease of chewing.
Stop taking Tylenol and call your doctor if:
- you still have a fever after 3 days of use;
- you still have pain after 7 days of use (or 5 days if treating a child);
- you have a skin rash, ongoing headache, or any redness or swelling; or
- if your symptoms get worse, or if you have any new symptoms.
This medication can cause unusual results with certain lab tests for glucose (sugar) in the urine. Tell any doctor who treats you that you are using Tylenol.
Store at room temperature away from heat and moisture.

It depends on the weight of the baby but I think it is 3/4 of a dropper full or 0.6 ml (not 6 ml) or you could try suppositories (feverall is the name) that are 80 mg these are usually easier. I listed the tylenol website, which it doesn't have it, but from experiance I would say these.

For children under 24 months, a much more accurate dose is figured based on weight rather than age. When my daughter was 12 lbs, the doc said .8mL

The last time my daughter went to the doctor he said it was ok to give her .6 mil and she is 11 months old. If you are unsure, contact your physician.

You should really consult your child's pediatrician. A child's dosage for medication is usually determined by weight.

Only a doctor can answer this for you because it goes by weight not age.
