I just called poison control

nanabanana06 · May 2013

I put Rosie to bed an hour ago. DH went on there Cuz he heard noises. Rosie had climbed her changing table and was coating herself in maximum strength desitin and painting it all over her Window. There was some around her mouth too. So I called poison control for the first time ever. Turns out she will be fine. Lol

Glad she'll be alright! Because I am curious, did Rosie have a reason for coating herself in Desitin? Like did she want to be like a clown in make up?

I would like to know, too.

Glad she's ok, though!

No. She took her dress off and was painting on the Window and body. At best it was modern art.

I've called poison control about 10 times. Luckily only one thing actually turned out to be posionous, and he didn't eat enough for it to be harmful. Glad she's okay!

My sister fed me a tube of Desitin once when I was a baby. She was about 2.5 and hated me. I'm convinced she knew exactly what she was doing...

I suppose it is an interesting texture. Hope it wasn't a Costco sized container.

She didn't get too much out of the tube. I think she just wanted to finger paint. The other day we finger painted in the tub using shaving cream and she loved it. I think she just got curious and tried it with this stuff. She also emptied her jewelry box and stuck all her hair clips, earrings, necklaces, and such into her piggy bank.

I'm so glad she was okay!

One time I had to call poison control because buddy ate a dish detergent pack. Those are toxic but luckily I cought it before he actually ingested much. And recently I had to call because Tiny got into a house plant and ate potting soil.

I had to call when DD drank hand sanitizer. They were very nice and she's fine.

DS got into some Vaseline once and completely coated himself. It took at least 3 baths to get it all off

Glad she's OK!

Did you try dish soap?

One time, when the little girl next door was about four, she used lotion as shampoo. I think it took about a week to get back to normal.

I had to call for the same reason with DS. Caught him pumping the sanitizer into his mouth. Basically they said I had to sober him up since he'd been drinking alcohol.

OP - glad that your little one is ok. Our dog ate a bunch of triple paste one time which resulted in a lot of white foaming vomit, but luckily she survived.

DD did the same thing when she was around 2! I was pissed because someone else had left the safety lock off the cabinet where the cleaning stuff was kept.

She puked almost immediately. They said to rinse her mouth out and give her milk. She was fine.

DS took vapor rub and did the same thing. All over him, the DVD player, Woody, and part of a wall...

I called about a month or two ago. My daughter got into my bc pills and there was one missing and one pill was broken and missing a piece. I wasn't sure if she actually swallowed them but I called anyway. They told me she hadn't had enough that would harm her so I didn't have to worry.
