POISON CONTROL

Yesterday was the scariest day of my parenting life.

Lauren drank up to 4 oz of children's Dimatap that I had stupidly left on the counter in the master bathroom. She is fine. With a quick call to Poison control & an even quicker trip to the ER, she was given charcoal to drink & was monitored for 4 hours. The ER Doc released her & said she was fine.

I never even thought that she could get it, would be interested in it, could open the bottle..... I have never been so scared in my life. I feel ashamed, bruised, stupid, hurt & so blessed that my little baby is ok

Here is the number to poison control

1-800-222-1222
