Honestly, I figured it was just bad breath (now that she has teeth, they can get bad breath). I will ask our doc at her appointment on Friday, and see if I can give any insight. If you figure it out before then, be sure to update. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/acetone-breath-in-baby#post-2010825 Mon, 05 Jan 2015 19:34:35 +0000 MrsMccarthy 2010825@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Praying all is well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/acetone-breath-in-baby#post-2010708 Mon, 05 Jan 2015 18:07:47 +0000 anonysquire 2010708@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Update: the breath came back so we went to instacare over the weekend. She was hard to wake up so I was worried of course. We might have seen the world's worst instacare doc. So now we still don't know what's wrong. So frustrated :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/acetone-breath-in-baby#post-2010705 Mon, 05 Jan 2015 18:06:18 +0000 anonysquire 2010705@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Chipmunk: no haha, I haven't painted her nails since she was able to put her hands on her mouth. I moved to her toes but stopped when she could put them in her mouth too. And I'm constantly next to her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/acetone-breath-in-baby#post-1998316 Fri, 26 Dec 2014 15:38:40 +0000 Mrs. Chipmunk 1998316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If it is ketoacidosis, she is more likely to get when she eats large amounts of foods vs eating very little food because it comes from not enough insulin to break the food down into usable energy. </p> <p>Really random - but I remember you had painted her nails when she was a newborn? Was she around any nail polish remover the day you smelled it? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/acetone-breath-in-baby#post-1998248 Fri, 26 Dec 2014 14:22:47 +0000 anonysquire 1998248@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Chipmunk: @matador84: @MrsRcCar: sorry, totally forgot to update. They said since she had no other symptoms to call back today if she still had the breath and they will do a blood and a urine test. But just in case, I made sure she ate really healthy and filling foods over the holiday. Really hope it's not blood sugar related.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/acetone-breath-in-baby#post-1998231 Fri, 26 Dec 2014 13:59:11 +0000 MrsRcCar 1998231@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anonysquire: Hope she is ok. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/acetone-breath-in-baby#post-1997175 Wed, 24 Dec 2014 13:19:35 +0000 matador84 1997175@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow that is crazy.

She is still nursing but has eaten crackers, a banana and a piece of pizza today. I can't find much on google. Just wondering if this warrants a after hours call to the dr? </p>
