Thank goodness. She is our daredevil and I told my husband afterwards that I'm expecting her to be the first to break a bone (my oldest hasn't, and his two daughters haven't either). She's already gotten into so much and she's only 19 months!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-sprayed-herself-in-the-eye-with-409#post-752072 Tue, 30 Apr 2013 09:53:50 +0000 LaughLines 752072@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got Mr. Clean in my eyes when I was a baby. My mom still talks about it, but it definitely traumatized her more than me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-sprayed-herself-in-the-eye-with-409#post-751987 Tue, 30 Apr 2013 09:29:45 +0000 tororojo 751987@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Glad she is ok! You did the right thing by flushing the eye out...my dad got gasoline in my eye once as a kid (long lawnmower story) and flushing w/water made it all better! And a popsicle. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-sprayed-herself-in-the-eye-with-409#post-751654 Tue, 30 Apr 2013 00:23:15 +0000 Smurfette 751654@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Glad she is ok! I would have been freaking out too but PP are right, things happen like this. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-sprayed-herself-in-the-eye-with-409#post-751637 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 23:58:13 +0000 googly-eyes 751637@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it sounds like she's ok! These things happen, don't beat yourself up! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-sprayed-herself-in-the-eye-with-409#post-751627 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 23:33:49 +0000 tequiero21 751627@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thank god she's ok! Don't worry, these things happen. Thank god kids are resilient! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/she-sprayed-herself-in-the-eye-with-409#post-751619 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 23:25:23 +0000 StbHisMrs 751619@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Omg! I was cleaning the seat of her highchair and set the bottle of 409 on the table next to me, she grabbed it and sprayed it before I could get it from her. I feel like the worst Mom in the world right now. My husband grabbed her and flushed her eye out under the kitchen sink for 5 minutes. The bottle says rinse for 15-20 minutes, those 5 minutes were nearly impossible. After 10 minutes of hugs she's back to normal, a little red, and now asleep. She seems to have peripheral vision and was laughing, and dancing afterwards. So scary, I just wanna cry. </p>
