My 1 year old (only 15 months) accidentally ate dog poop.

My 1 year old was eating breakfast and I was rushing and walked away for 1 minute to put a hoodie on to let our dog outside. I didn’t see our dog popped already and my 1 year old picked it up and price and was eating it and when I noticed. I rinsed her mouth out and washed her hands. I’m not sure if I should take her to the ER or not. She seems fine so far. Just fussy when I rinsed her mouth out.

Ahahahahah this is soo funny! I found my little boy eating my little girls shit out the bath the other day! 🤣 good for their immune system lol 🤣 I wouldnt worry to much 🤣 Just keep an eye on them and make sure they dont come out in any rashes or temps x

I would definitely get her checked out or if ur in the uk ring 111 unsure if there’s an equivalent depending on where you live

Yikes please get her checked out … human feces has a lot of bacteria. I can only imagine dog. 🤮

I think you can catch diseases from it so I'd get her checked over

Take her to the ER. They’ll probably run tests or give her something to avoid an infection

There are a range of diseases that can be picked up from dog eating any animal poo. They’re also 99% sure to have at least some type of worm at any given time. I’d definitely call 111 to get some advice x

Can’t advise but just don’t beat yourself up over it. Kids at that age are feral, you won’t be the first of last this happened to x

Yes def get them checked, dog could have worms as well as other diseases. I agree, not the same as dropping something and eating it, it’s literal dog shit. Please don’t beat yourself up though, incog! Hope you’re okay

that’s disgusting. id definitely take her to get checked out.

This happened to my daughter, my Dr said rinse mouth out very well and monitor. She said there aas nothing much that could be done. My daughter was fine, nothing came of it other then feeling embarrassed as all hell.

Wdy think of this for a toddler to learn word construction?

I'm open to anything else to start teaching him to read and write. He's 3!

Do men really enjoy fellatio?

Been together more than 10 years, but it's been a while since he even seemed remotely interested in me getting on my knees, or vice versa so to speak. I think it was once last year. Must be something I am doing wrong 🤔. Generally everything else in that department is great and we have two young kids with no extra support, so it's quite surprising we can't keep our hands off each other but may need to try new things. It's basically 2 positions each time with some foreplay.

Vanilla extract

Has anyone used alcohol free vanilla in their babies formal to help them drink?
I’m 100% sure my baby refuses her bottles as she doesn’t like the taste of it!

Just anxious to try it, don’t want her to get used to it and then refuse bottles again after two weeks of using (correct me if I’m wrong but I’ve read you use it for 2 weeks max)

TIA 🙂

Naps

How is everyone doing for naps?

Little one is 9 months old and will have 2 half hour naps and one solid 1 hour - 2 hour nap a day

Then settles for night around 9pm. Wakes for a feed around 3:30 then sleeps until 6-7

Sex post C section

Hi ladies I’m 4 weeks 5 days postpartum and I had a C section. I’m not bleeding properly anymore just some brownish discharge stuff that starts on and off. I’d like to do the deed with my partner; is it okay to do so or shall I wait the full 6 weeks. I feel up for it but also worried because the advice is 6-8 weeks.

Car seat crying

My 6 month old PANICS the second I put him in a car seat and screams, cries, chokes and recently even projectile vomited on a 14 minute drive. It’s gotten to the point I don’t even bring him out unless it’s to a doctors appointment. I’m a stay at home mom with no family in my state and it has been very isolating. We’ve tried 3 different car seats with no improvement. Has anyone had a baby who hated the car seat? Any advice? This started at 3 months. I will add it does seem worse when he’s tired. He does cry on every trip though. He only contact naps and co sleeps so he reaches for me and will not sleep in the car seat.
