Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

My kid ate a pound of sand...

Or so says my daycare provider... :)  They are kids that's what they do. But he just projectile vomit all over me. Should I call & see if they are related.  What would you do?  My mom thinks I should because she is afraid he could get worms.

  • I'd be questioning DCP-how supervised is he if he has enough time to eat that much sand? Yes the I would definately call the dr.

  • Why did she let him eat that much sand? I know kids eat some sand, but she should've probably stopped him if he was just shoveling it in!

    I don't know that I would be concerned about worms, but I would call the pedi either way and let them know, if he truly ate that much sand, he could get an intestional blockage.

  • Sorry, I guess sometimes sarcasm gets lost in typing.  I am sure that it wasn't a pound.  I guess it sounded funnier in person. But thanks for the advice.
  • Was she shoveling it in his mouth???  I've never heard of the worms thing until my coworker with three boys told me about it.  I guess it's very common.  I would call the Dr.
