With toys, most of the time I'll wipe. At home I just give back for both. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-drops-a-paci-utensil-or-toy-on-the-floor#post-185042 Sun, 10 Jun 2012 21:05:59 +0000 Sweet T 185042@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If we're at home, I just give it back. If we're out somewhere, I wipe it off. Restaurant floors are nasty! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-drops-a-paci-utensil-or-toy-on-the-floor#post-185041 Sun, 10 Jun 2012 21:05:29 +0000 mrstilly 185041@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>99% of the time we just give it back to him. Unless it looks dirty, or I know the floor/ground is dirty, I don't bother washing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-drops-a-paci-utensil-or-toy-on-the-floor#post-185016 Sun, 10 Jun 2012 20:32:17 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 185016@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually I wipe it off and give it back. For a paci, when it's dirty or went in my nieces mouth (and she's sick) I rinse it... but majority of the time I'm lazy, or I don't have water near. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-drops-a-paci-utensil-or-toy-on-the-floor#post-185006 Sun, 10 Jun 2012 20:28:46 +0000 heffalump 185006@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Depends if it fell somewhere that the dog likes to be. If its full of dog hair, which it usually is, I wash it off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-drops-a-paci-utensil-or-toy-on-the-floor#post-184293 Sat, 09 Jun 2012 16:37:12 +0000 Rubies 184293@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Give it back...I might wipe it down or rinse it under water if I feel like it but meh, whatever. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-drops-a-paci-utensil-or-toy-on-the-floor#post-184201 Sat, 09 Jun 2012 12:55:55 +0000 prettylizy 184201@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Eh, as long as it looks marginally clean we just give it back, witha wipe or a few puffs of breath to make sure there isn't anything stuck to it </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-drops-a-paci-utensil-or-toy-on-the-floor#post-184198 Sat, 09 Jun 2012 12:51:48 +0000 Mrs. Superhero 184198@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, I always just give them back. Um, and usually when we're not at home. And my kids hardly ever get sick! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-drops-a-paci-utensil-or-toy-on-the-floor#post-184188 Sat, 09 Jun 2012 12:35:17 +0000 chopsuey 184188@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No paci, but if we're at home i'll just give things back to her without wiping. We don't wear shoes in the house and I steam the floors with hot water 1-2x a week. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-drops-a-paci-utensil-or-toy-on-the-floor#post-184184 Sat, 09 Jun 2012 12:30:53 +0000 skibobrown 184184@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm really bad about cleaning the paci. If I'm near the sink or have a wet wipe on hand I'll clean it. Otherwise I just wipe it off really well on my shirt and give it back. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-drops-a-paci-utensil-or-toy-on-the-floor#post-184179 Sat, 09 Jun 2012 12:28:30 +0000 sandy 184179@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No paci for us either...and she doesn't feed herself yet but if she drops her toy i just give it back to her whether we're at home or if we are out. I wouldn't do it if the floor looked dirty but I figure some germs are ok to develop her immune system :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-drops-a-paci-utensil-or-toy-on-the-floor#post-184176 Sat, 09 Jun 2012 12:25:49 +0000 Mrs. Bee 184176@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you wipe/wash it before giving it back?</p> <p>A toy I usually give back. Olive doesn't take pacis. A utenstil I will wipe with a napkin and give it back to her. We clean our floors often with a steam mop and vinegar... I'm sure they're pretty clean. :)</p> <p>What do you do? </p>
