smidgy said:I broka my baby toe back in 82. baby jeremy was in his crib; we were watching tv (pink panther). baby cries, mom had to LEAP up and charge into the bedroom or said baby will die or something.
we had a tiny living room and the playpen (remember those? miss them) took up a third of it. the leg stuck out on an angle and went right between my baby toe and the 4th one.. ouch!
nebo settles Jeremy down.. ok, we'll see how it goes with the toe.. doesn't look TOO bad.
5 minutes later, baby jeremy creis again, I repeat the exact scenario: LEAP up and jam that play[en leg into the same spot!!!
no the baby toe was sticking out perpendicular to the rest of the foot.
NEbo: "no doubt about it now; it's broken."
after the er dr. distracted me and yanked it back in place (and nebo took my hands off his throat), all they did was tape it to the next one.
and I ran out of the white adhesive tape at home, so I walked around for a week or two with black electrical tape around my 2 toes.
(Nebo isn't the only dork in the family)
I ran into a wall getting my daughter a bottle in the middle of the night and literally saw stars. I looked like I got beaten up the next day at work, swollen nose, black eyes. I'm sure there were some whispers.
