It really freaked us out because we had no idea what was happening or why. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-been-to-the-er-or-urgent-care#post-2504966 Thu, 24 Mar 2016 07:16:09 +0000 Astro Bee 2504966@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've been once, on New Year's Eve! LO pulled my mom's heavy DSLR camera down on his head from the counter. The strap was hanging over the edge. We were worried about concussion, but he was fine. Babies' heads are resilient! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-been-to-the-er-or-urgent-care#post-2504922 Thu, 24 Mar 2016 06:23:08 +0000 Adira 2504922@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Xander's been for a cut he got. He had to get liquid stitches. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-been-to-the-er-or-urgent-care#post-2504902 Thu, 24 Mar 2016 03:18:56 +0000 littlebug 2504902@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With D, once. He was 5m old and somehow flipped himself off the ottoman, landing head-first on a hardwood floor. I'd laid him down for a second to lift my shirt and unclip my nursing bra. It was awful. And it was 5am on Father's Day - great start to Hubs's first one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-been-to-the-er-or-urgent-care#post-2504893 Thu, 24 Mar 2016 01:19:38 +0000 creativemomma15 2504893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This thread is timely... We just took DD1 tonight. She fell off a chair and brought the chair down with her. Her leg &amp; foot were stuck in the rungs and she wouldn't walk. Got X-rays and it's not broken, just badly bruised. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-been-to-the-er-or-urgent-care#post-2504889 Thu, 24 Mar 2016 00:23:50 +0000 Boogs 2504889@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Twice, but only one of them was for non-illness -- it was nursemaid's elbow. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-been-to-the-er-or-urgent-care#post-2504844 Wed, 23 Mar 2016 21:41:06 +0000 Foodnerd81 2504844@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@delight: c pulls away when I'm holding her hand- like does that dramatic drop to the ground when she's throwing a tantrum- and I'm afraid she will get hurt like that. So far so good but she can be very dramatic. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-been-to-the-er-or-urgent-care#post-2504811 Wed, 23 Mar 2016 20:49:14 +0000 yellowbird 2504811@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Dd went because she swallowed a penny and the ped wanted to make sure it wasn't stuck in her esophagus so we went to the ER for an X-ray.</p> <p>Ds went once because I dropped him as I was falling down the stairs :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-been-to-the-er-or-urgent-care#post-2504790 Wed, 23 Mar 2016 20:17:22 +0000 Trailmix 2504790@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Several times! Once when DD was super tiny (6-7 weeks maybe) bc she choked on some milk and was having trouble breathing. Then DS went at 7 months when he slipped while crawling and knocked his tooth loose. And then finally when DD was about 16 months old, she fractured her wrist. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-been-to-the-er-or-urgent-care#post-2504785 Wed, 23 Mar 2016 20:09:35 +0000 regberadaisy 2504785@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Alba4: @delight: we were eating dinner and she was fooling around and stuck the chopsticks in her ears. She was screaming and crying. The chopsticks were already out of her ears but because she wouldn't stop crying and saying her ears hurt we decided to take her to urgent care. Thankfully, she did not hurt her ear drums! Just bruised the outside of the canal. 😁</p> <p>Don't need to be a boy mom to get daily heart attacks in this house! DD2 is a daredevil too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-been-to-the-er-or-urgent-care#post-2504779 Wed, 23 Mar 2016 20:04:50 +0000 pastemoo 2504779@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For a concussion, the other two were for illness. No major stitches incidents yet, knock on wood. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-been-to-the-er-or-urgent-care#post-2504774 Wed, 23 Mar 2016 19:57:20 +0000 chopsuey 2504774@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD went once.<br /> DS has been twice 😖 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-been-to-the-er-or-urgent-care#post-2504773 Wed, 23 Mar 2016 19:56:28 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 2504773@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've already had a broken arm and stitches! It's gonna be a long boymom life. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-been-to-the-er-or-urgent-care#post-2504763 Wed, 23 Mar 2016 19:43:11 +0000 delight 2504763@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: @Charm54: well I should actually admit it happened a second time to us too! We were told at the hospital that once nursemaid's elbow happens once, it is likely to happen again. We were so careful after the first time but then it happened when I was putting a onesie on her! We were not near a hospital at that time (at our cottage) so DH ended up watching YouTube videos and put it back into place. </p> <p>It's so easy to do though without even thinking of it. Even just holding on to your child's hand walking up stairs or over a curb can cause it if they trip and you don't let go. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-been-to-the-er-or-urgent-care#post-2504761 Wed, 23 Mar 2016 19:39:09 +0000 avivoca 2504761@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Only for illness, but I'm sure it is coming. She's turning into quite the little daredevil. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-been-to-the-er-or-urgent-care#post-2504760 Wed, 23 Mar 2016 19:36:11 +0000 erinbaderin 2504760@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, my son tripped and smacked his forehead on the wooden edge of his walker. He had a giant gouge they wouldn't stop bleeding so we went to see if he needed stitches which luckily he didn't, they just put a butterfly bandage across it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-been-to-the-er-or-urgent-care#post-2504739 Wed, 23 Mar 2016 19:15:10 +0000 Charm54 2504739@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@delight: @Foodnerd81: this happens to us too... The first time we were swinging her and had no idea - she cried so much :sad: luckily my SIL is a pediatric physio and was able to show us how to fix it. We are super careful ever since then but it still happens sometimes accidentally :sad: My SIL said some kids are more susceptible to it than others ! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-been-to-the-er-or-urgent-care#post-2504735 Wed, 23 Mar 2016 19:12:31 +0000 Foodnerd81 2504735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@delight: that happened to my friends son and I warned DH about it and how common it is, and he still keeps doing it until I remind him again! It happens so often! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-been-to-the-er-or-urgent-care#post-2504729 Wed, 23 Mar 2016 19:09:51 +0000 delight 2504729@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: yikes! We're the chopsticks in her ears when you went or did you pull them out before and you just wanted to check damage? I'm shuddering. </p> <p>We took LO to Emerg because of nursemaid's elbow. We were swinging her (rookie mistake) and dislocated it. We felt flipping horrible but were assured it happens a lot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-been-to-the-er-or-urgent-care#post-2504717 Wed, 23 Mar 2016 18:55:37 +0000 Foodnerd81 2504717@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thankfully, we have never been to urgent care or the ER for her. But she came within inches of doing exactly what you daughter did, @regberadaisy: - jumping on the couch jumped wrong and almost slammed her face into the edge of a coffee table. I had just sat down next to her to tell her to stop and managed to grab her leg and pull her back so she only hit her face on the carpeted floor. I was also holding the baby and totally threw my back out. But no ER! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-been-to-the-er-or-urgent-care#post-2504715 Wed, 23 Mar 2016 18:55:18 +0000 Alba4 2504715@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy: Chop sticks stuck in her ears!!!??! What a story! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-been-to-the-er-or-urgent-care#post-2504706 Wed, 23 Mar 2016 18:45:03 +0000 Charm54 2504706@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She broke her arm at daycare when she was 18 months old. It was so sad seeing her that little cast! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/has-your-lo-ever-been-to-the-er-or-urgent-care#post-2504705 Wed, 23 Mar 2016 18:44:02 +0000 regberadaisy 2504705@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>for none illness related reasons?</p> <p>My almost 4 yo has been twice. Once she was jumping on the couch and got a cut under her eye because she fell on the edge of the coffee table. She needed 4-6 stitches.<br /> The second time because she stuck chopsticks in her ears. 🙉 Thankfully she didn't go in far enough to hurt her eardrums! </p>
