dreading ripping off the bandaids...

Literally. LO had her 2 month shots yesterday and there are now three giant bandaids on her thighs.

What ever happened to the teeny little button bandaids?!

Perhaps the stickiness will subside with a bath....

C's came right off and she didn't flinch one bit. Good luck!

Thanks, this is encouraging. I'm hoping they're perhaps less sticky than regular bandaids or something.

They're different bandaids, made for kids. Not as sticky as adult ones.

Not the ones that my pedi uses. It took nearly three days and three baths for the band-aid to fall off! Ugh...

A little bit of cooking oil should loosen them.

Never thought of cooking oil!

The ones our Dr uses come right off in the bath tub. I like them.

I sort of felt bad when I took my son's bandaids off, also. He has hairy legs and I was really afraid of taking out some hair. I waited a few days (and baths) and they came off without him noticing.

Just yank it off...she won't even notice.

alcohol pads help make them less sticky if you rub them against the underside of the bandaid as you're pulling.

I did it when he was eating and he didn't even notice.

Just dab a little baby oil over it and then under the edges as you peel off and it'll come right off.
