But glad that’s all it was! I feel like it was ears you would see crusty nastiness around his ears. I’d be generous with the baby ibuprofen. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-on-los-sheets#post-2812401 Tue, 27 Mar 2018 18:57:12 +0000 skipra 2812401@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well I didn't call the doctor to check his ears because he has no symptoms of an ear infection and when I got s good look in his mouth I could see that his gums were most likely bleeding. Poor baby. I have never seen a molar cut through so fast. He has been working on it for ages but as of last weekend you could just feel it under the gums and now it's almost fully through except a small spot in the middle. No wonder why he was crabby and bloody! Yikes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-on-los-sheets#post-2812099 Mon, 26 Mar 2018 23:29:15 +0000 helloperidot 2812099@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Happened to us when DD1 cut her molars. I went in to get her in the morning and she had blood around her mouth and a little on the sheet. It freaked me out but apparently it's completely normal when the molars finally pop through. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-on-los-sheets#post-2812093 Mon, 26 Mar 2018 21:47:00 +0000 skipra 2812093@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cake2017: I was hoping everyone would say teeth but now that I know it might be his ears I will call in the morning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-on-los-sheets#post-2812085 Mon, 26 Mar 2018 21:11:21 +0000 cake2017 2812085@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Did you call the doctor and see what they might think? That would freak me out too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-on-los-sheets#post-2812075 Mon, 26 Mar 2018 20:04:11 +0000 skipra 2812075@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Iced Tea: @Foodnerd81: oh I had no idea! I'll have to check it out! He has had 2 ear infections and was inconsolable both times but maybe it's just a mild one, if that's even a thing?</p> <p>@IRunForFun: sometimes he gets scratches on his ear so I did look and didn't see anything. Ill look again in the morning. </p> <p>@Mama Bird: no gnawing but he did just have a molar cut through so I'm hoping it's just that. I was kind of hoping for a lot of people to say the same thing happened with teething. It was my guess since he was crying and slobbering today when I found it but I was looking to see if it's a common thing. I didn't see blood in his mouth but it does look puffy and irritated. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-on-los-sheets#post-2812072 Mon, 26 Mar 2018 19:55:03 +0000 Foodnerd81 2812072@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My friend had that happen once, kind of a lot of blood, and she never figured out what it was but it stopped. Weird. </p> <p>I have the dr. Mom otoscope! I can look in my 4 year olds ears and tell when they are red or clear! My 2 year old won’t let me look closely enough- yet. (Not that red necessarily means an infection but it does tell me her ears are bothering her). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-on-los-sheets#post-2812068 Mon, 26 Mar 2018 19:53:31 +0000 IRunForFun 2812068@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@skipra: I would wonder about an ear infection as well. Maybe if it happens again tonight check his ears to see if there's any dried blood? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-on-los-sheets#post-2812067 Mon, 26 Mar 2018 19:52:55 +0000 Mama Bird 2812067@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hope it's nothing! Has he been gnawing on teethers? DS once gnawed so much his gum started bleeding. It was quite a bit of blood. He wasn't in bed, but I can see how this could have happened if he did it right before bedtime. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-on-los-sheets#post-2812063 Mon, 26 Mar 2018 19:51:20 +0000 Iced Tea 2812063@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@skipra: home otoscope is a thing! I think the brand is called Dr Mom! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-on-los-sheets#post-2812062 Mon, 26 Mar 2018 19:47:50 +0000 skipra 2812062@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bhbee: hmm I don't know. His sleep has been awful so a possibility. No fever though. I wish I could check his ears myself. That freaks me out to think of blood coming out of his ears </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-on-los-sheets#post-2812059 Mon, 26 Mar 2018 19:42:17 +0000 bhbee 2812059@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Could there be an ear infection going on? That’s the only time I’ve found weird stuff on sheets. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-on-los-sheets#post-2812058 Mon, 26 Mar 2018 19:42:05 +0000 skipra 2812058@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We already have a humidifier running in the room and in the hallway just outside. It could be, I suppose but when we've had even just a little blood from the nose with my older son you could tell. His nose has been 100% clear. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-on-los-sheets#post-2812054 Mon, 26 Mar 2018 19:38:44 +0000 Tanjowen 2812054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@skipra: My friend's baby nose bled a few drops one night during winter once due to lack of humidity. She put a humidifier in the room and it stopped. Might be the issue? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blood-on-los-sheets#post-2812052 Mon, 26 Mar 2018 19:36:10 +0000 skipra 2812052@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Last night when I put my 18 month old to bed I found some blood on the sheets where his head was the previous night. It was one spot larger than a quarter and then about 3 or 4 smaller spots. Nothing this morning but he cried a bit when I put him down for his nap and when I went back in the room there were two small blood spots.<br /> Does anyone have a guess what it could be from? No bloody noses and he had boogers streaming down his face from crying that were completely clear. Could it be from teething? He is cutting a molar right now but with 3 kids and all their teeth I've never found blood on the sheets. I normally wouldn't worry but the first time was quite a bit and now it's happened more than once. </p>
