Today I had the joy of calling Poison Control thanks to my little Lu. It wasn't anything major, he just decided to eat some Desitin while I was changing his diaper! I was quick to get him cleaned up and his mouth wiped out with a wet wipe. He wasn't too happy with me about that. I wasn't sure if he had swallowed any Desitin or not but I don't think he did. I was like 90% sure he hadn't. He had it on both of his hands, his lips, and all over in his mouth. I read the label on the back of the tube and it said to get immediate medical attention or to call Poison Control if swallowed. I called my mommy instead, haha. I wasn't too nervous or freaking out or anything but I was worried that this might not be good. She told me that I should probably make a phone call to our pediatricians office. I hung up with her and tried to get a hold of Chad to see what his thoughts were. He was in Mona at his moms house helping her pack and clean for her big move next weekend (she's moving to Nephi) and had left his phone while running to the junk yard. So I called the pediatricians office for some advice and they thought that Luke would probably be okay but to go ahead and call Poison Control just in case. I called Poison Control and went through a series of questions before finally being told that Luke would be fine. The man at Poison Control that helped me out said if anything Luke would probably just end up with a bad case of diarrhea, which he never did but his diapers were definitely worse than usual. This kid is going to give us a run for our money! He's way more mischievous than Tyke ever was and he's only 15 months old!
