Thankfully kids heal quickly from these things. maybe start him back at school for mornings only and then take him back for afternoons once he perks up a bit? I bet his cast will get lots of extra attention from his friends, which could be fun for him :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-boy-broke-his-leg-/page/2#post-1065787 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 18:37:57 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1065787@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Poor lil' fella! I agree with @sarac:<br /> I'm so sorry you're having to deal with this. It's tough figuring out how to manage work and deal with a handicapped toddler at home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-boy-broke-his-leg-/page/2#post-1065498 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 16:22:31 +0000 sarac 1065498@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Poor kid. If this were mine, I would immediately suspend all tv rules and let her pretty much go to town. Anything to keep a toddler quiet and entertained without running around. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-boy-broke-his-leg-#post-1065481 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 16:15:18 +0000 swedishfish 1065481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh, I'm so sorry :sad: I hope he gets better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-boy-broke-his-leg-#post-1065444 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 16:00:26 +0000 lamariniere 1065444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sweet T: I found the post on the broken leg.

As of today he is just sitting wherever we put him. :-/</p> <p>Thanks for all the support ladies! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-boy-broke-his-leg-#post-1064549 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 11:07:29 +0000 yin 1064549@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Poor little guy. Hope he feels better and heals quickly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-boy-broke-his-leg-#post-1064463 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 10:38:23 +0000 BananaPancakes 1064463@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm so sorry this happened. My little brother broke his leg at a similar age, and it ended up not being a big deal for him at all. He just ran around as normally as he could and didn't seem affected by it much at all. Maybe after he gets used to the cast, your director might feel a but more comfortable with it and he can go back full time? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-boy-broke-his-leg-#post-1064458 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 10:37:09 +0000 lovehoneybee 1064458@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh poor baby.

Maybe you could just take him in the morning, so you can get some work done. Then he can take his afternoon nap at home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-boy-broke-his-leg-#post-1064284 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 09:46:10 +0000 MrsF 1064284@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Poor little guy!

How is he feeling? After about a week, he should start feeling much better and be used to it and wanting to run around. Maybe keep him at home for the 1st 1/2 of the day for this week (since he'll need his rest to heal that leg), and then see about taking him in twice a day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-boy-broke-his-leg-#post-1064235 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 09:27:49 +0000 HLK208 1064235@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How sad :( I hope his leg heals quickly! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-boy-broke-his-leg-#post-1064222 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 09:23:38 +0000 T-Mom 1064222@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is terrible, so sorry to hear!

I agree with PP about keeping his activity as normal as possible. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-boy-broke-his-leg-#post-1064144 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 08:56:11 +0000 lamariniere 1064144@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: As for daycare, I'm just going to play it by ear for the rest of the week and then hopefully things will be more clear starting next week. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-boy-broke-his-leg-#post-1064141 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 08:53:42 +0000 looch 1064141@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lamariniere: Well, I hear you on the napping, my son can easily sleep 3 hours at home, but the most he's ever logged at day care is 2 hours.</p> <p>I'd bring him in the morning and see how he does, he might be more tired, you never know! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-boy-broke-his-leg-#post-1064140 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 08:53:38 +0000 sslm 1064140@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Poor little guy :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-boy-broke-his-leg-#post-1064138 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 08:51:34 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1064138@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>oh this is so sad!!!

I hope your LO feels better soon and heals quickly. @Ohapostrophe wrote about her son breaking his leg in a guest post and also on her personal blog. I would link to them but my phone is giving me a hard time. I'm sure you could touch base with her though. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-boy-broke-his-leg-#post-1064130 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 08:49:43 +0000 lamariniere 1064130@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: The director was not terribly clear on which times would be ok or if both would work. We live just a 5min walk from the school, so it would be possible, I suppose, to take him twice per day. My thought is that if he were home in the afternoon he would probably nap better than if he were to nap at school. He can easily nap 2-3 hours at home, but I think it's more like 1-2 hours at school.</p> <p>@T.H.O.U.: I asked about pushing him in the stroller to the park, but the new school session just started this week and so there are a few new kids (young 2 year olds) and the teachers need all their hands free to be able to deal with them. The park is about 10min walking from the school, so while it isn't far, they still have to cross streets and look out for traffic. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/my-little-boy-broke-his-leg-#post-1064114 Wed, 04 Sep 2013 08:45:48 +0000 mrs.cookie 1064114@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh no! How traumatising for you both! (Probably you more than him!). My nephew broke his leg at 2, he wasn't in daycare so just kept quiet at home, I think he was spoilt with lots of new books, puzzles... Lego?<br /> Hope he is otherwise feeling ok. </p>
