Hand, Foot & Mouth Disease

In our family, it's a requirement to get Hand, Foot & Mouth Disease before your 1st birthday. :(

On Monday, Tom called me after dropping the kids off at school and let me know that there was a note on the older infant door that said to watch out for Hand, Foot and Mouth disease, because another baby went home from it. Great - if anything goes around that school, Grace ends up getting it!

Sure enough, that night when I was changing her diaper - she had quite a few blisters on her legs, and since Tommy had it before, I knew that's what it was. There's not much to do about it, but around 9:15 that night, Grace woke up screaming and tugging on her left ear. I just knew she had an ear infection, so Tom ended up taking her to Acute Kids where they prescribed her with her normal ear infection medicine and some other medicine to prevent the sores to itch.

Poor baby!



Needless to say, we both had to miss work until Tom's parents got here on Friday, but by then she probably wasn't contagious anymore - we just kept her home to be on the safe side.

It was nice getting to spend a little one on one time with her those couple days.

  10. I've been surfing online greater than three hours these days, but I by no means found any interesting article like yours. It is lovely worth enough for me. In my view, if all website owners and bloggers made excellent content as you probably did, the web will probably be a lot more helpful than ever before.
