HELP!
Waiting on pediatrician to call us back for a appointment, pretty sure my buggy has hand foot and mouth . She woke up with these blister type things around her mouth, I checked inside it, I put her in the bath and checked her whole body to see if maybe there are anymore and can’t find Any. She’s got a very small fever of 99.9. . What can I do for her till I can get her in? It’s not a emergency so a er trip is out of the question, she’s acting normal too so I don’t want to scare her with poking and prodding . Ideas? Advice? I’ll add pictures of her mouth .
@leann.harris, I have seen kids get it extreme bad and I have seen kids get mild cases of it too. It lasts at least a week usually and the kids are in so much pain that they basically cry and scream the entire time..
Yeah like @mommy.to.sterling said 7-10 days for the blisters but the peeling takes forever
@mommy.to.sterling, @missheatherbaby, @skyy12221, her doctor said they can’t judge it off of symptoms this small so I have to just treat it from home and hope it’s just like a drool bump or something. I don’t wanna take her to the er for it because online it says it’s extremely common and not worth the trip since they cannot do anything for it either.
How long does it usually last? This is my first experience with it so im totally lost
Yeah you really can’t do anything other than give them Tylenol for the pain. You have to let it run it’s coarse.
Its a virus so honestly you can't do anything for it, it has to run its course. You can alternate Tylenol and Motrin to make her comfortable. It starts in the mouth that's why she has the fever and bumps on her mouth eventually it'll spread to her hands and feet and probably legs arms and torso as well. I just dealt with this with my older 2 boys.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
@missheatherbaby, she seems to be okay so far hopefully it’s mild .
