Well I hope his foot heals soon.....Lyn5 said:Hi S.C.
Hi everyoneWe didn't get to go camping or the beach this weekend
The cut on DS's foot was really bad and dirty. We took him last night to get it cleaned and it took DH, a doctor and three nurses to hold him and clean it...they finally got the board out when it was time to glue it shut. So, we have to keep it clean and dry for 5 days...so no going camping and sponge baths for a while...I always tell DS to wear slippers outside...I hope now he will listen to me

Me too...Stephieann said:Well I hope his foot heals soon.....
So how is everyone tonight... I got alot done today... well i guess i did.. LOL
Yep. He was playing in the mud and somehow got a huge gash on his foot...it was a straigt cut, but there mud and gunk in there. Mama tried to clean it up as best she could, but couldn't get in there to clean it. DH and I didn't have better luck, so that is when we took him in. Which I am glad we did...right when all the coughs and colds were almost done....I swear it never ends...sort of like my laundaryMom2Ashli said:Wow. He really did a number on his foot.![]()

Mom2Ashli said:Wow if it was that dirty it was probably for the best that you took him in to get it cleaned up good.
Well hopfully now it will close up and heal quickly.
dancing smiliesLyn5 said:what is this? does anyone know?
isn't that the truth! I nursed/pumped for the first 6 months with mine, then gave them enfamil to drink and mixed in the cereal. That stuff was expensive...but at least I could buy the large thing at Costco. Then, DS had to drink Pediasure for a whileStephieann said:yes he is better i gave him a little bit of ceral with apple juice blended with it to give it flavor. DH is at drill and he is going to pick up some babyfood. I have moved him up from 5 oz to 7.. yes he is drinking 7 oz. i think he is in a growth spurt. At least i hope so... 7 oz that adds up to $$$ LOL
Lyn5 said:so far so good....but we are watching for infection
It was right across the bottom of his foot, like he had it sliced across with a large rock or something. I felt really bad for him and for Mama....she keeps calling to check on him, I think she felt/feels horrible. But, it wasn't her fault...things happen and he is an active boy...I have told him how many times to wear something on his feet outside...this could have easily happened at home...hopefully now he will listen
