Poison control first




She may be our third, but she's destined for some classic firsts!!!

Today was my first time ever calling poison control. I had to go wipe Faith's toosh and left the room for a split second. Wouldn't you know, I come back and wonder 'what in the world does she have that she's chewing on?' The Glade Plug-in refill thing had dropped from the Plug-in, and Abrie had decided to investigate and chew (and suck) on the tip. She smelled overwhelmingly like lavendar or lilac or whatever scent it was. She was drooling it all over herself. Needless to say, I panicked! Not even the likes of my scheming little Beebster have ever warranted a call to Poison Control. But, there's always room for some firsts!

The woman that answered was as nice as could be. Abrie was screaming bloody murder, but I think it was moreso because of my reaction to her to drop what she was chewing on and a stern "Noooooooooo!!!" The woman even called back after 30 minutes to check and make sure she was OK since she was worried about her drinking. At first Abrie didn't want to drink from her sippy cup (which is what the nurse told me to see if she would do), but then I nursed her before her nap and she ate well.

A first for my Show, and a first for my little ladies!
