I learned this one the hard way: I left out a closed bottle of Extra Strength Excedrin, and Charlie somehow got it open (?!). I had only taken one pill out of 50 and there were 49 left in the bottle (Charlie had put one in his mouth, but spit it out), so I was pretty sure we were ok.

Still, I wasn't 100% sure that I had taken that single pill... you know how doubts form when you really think about something over and over? That's exactly what happened here.

We ended up calling Poison Control and they said that even if Charlie had ingested a single pill, he was old enough that he would be ok.

Let me just say: I no longer ever leave bottles where he can even see them, let alone open them up and take a pill!!

Ever had to call Poison Control? Or barring that, have you moved all pills and pill bottles out of reach of your LO?
