My one year old just got hand foot mouth from my sisters kids. Wtf do i do? Can it be dangerous? My sons acting fine. Will he get it to ? Doctors tomrrow
Just try to sanitize as much as you can. But yes it’s very contagious. Spreads like a wildfire. Just recently found out that sometimes adults can get it too.
@kellelutz, poor thing 😔.. Yea it definitely can get bad, and the bumps can be in more places than their hands, feet, and mouth.. But just remember it looks that way. They’re usually fine. And I hope she has a speedy recovery..
It's highly contagious. Your 1 year old may not want to eat if it's in her mouth so push liquids. Offer popsicles, pudding, ect. Nothing you can do for it. You can try calamine lotion or cortisone cream on the rash if it's itchy.
@kellelutz no problem, it scared me so bad when my son had it
@two.tiny.texans anything with a high fever and young kids scare the fuck out of me
@kellelutz the fever is super short, the bumps are what freaked me out
Yes your son will probably get it. Push fluids until you see the Dr. Tylenol/Motrin
Locking your doors
We are having a discussion on one of my birth boards from my older kids about locking doors and security alarms. There are many of us (me included) who do not lock our doors at home (I actually don't even have a deadbolt on my house and we don't lock it when we leave either), and others who think that's totally weird. So what do you do? Do you lock your doors? Do you think it's weird that people don't?
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...
Trigger. Lost baby
Went in for my 20 week check up and found out our son had passed away. Nothing was wrong, my pregnancy has been going great. I'm so numb right now. I'll he delivering him later this week. I don't want to do this. I don't want to do this. Not before Christmas. How am I'm going to tell my kids?? My dear sweet baby boy. Why did this happen?

(Thread Closed) 12week scan of my identical twins- got my 20week scan in 5weeks but not finding out what sex they are. But just for fun what do you all think? :)
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...
Not dangerous I just got over this with my olmost 3 year old and it looks scary and it hurts them because they have blisters on their body but as long as u keep all the toys door handles and chairs and tables sanitized you should be okay my daughter and I both did not get it USE A LOT OF HAND SANITIZER
