Yup once. DS1 drank hair conditioner. I found him in the bathroom with the bottle tipped back! Apparently it just causes diarrhea.

@bluestriped bee: I've never heard that vitamin c and water were bad?

@stiletto_mom: vitamin supplements are not recommended unless prescribed by a pediatrian. The twins were already on a multi vitamin prescribed by the pediatrician. Water alone given to an infant can lead to water intoxication. Water mixed with formula is completely different from just water. My family member has this crazy idea to overload on vitamin c. It nuts for an adult to believe that vitamin c will cure everything but even more insane to dissolve vitamin c powder in water and spoon feed it to my son for 8 hours. I had just come home from a long day visiting my daughter who was in the hospital with RSV and had come home to hear they had apparently cured my son of his cough, gas and runny nose. The last thing I wanted was to call poison control at 3 in the morning. Luckily, all was fine but I still have no idea how much powder was dissolved. My family member said it was just a little bit. I don't believe them. I trusted this family member and thought she was the more normal and reliable people in my family. Not anymore.
