My 2.8 year old ate 5 contraceptive pills yesterday

[Coldtits]

Doctor consulted etc, with advice "Watch for illness" (there has been no illness)

CaLL me callous, but now I know he's ok I am cross that he finished off my last packet, meaning I have to see the nurse on Monday to get some more PRONTO.

I didn't think he could reach them.

Didn't they taste funny? Quite impressed actually, very hard to get any medicine into my children. Glad he's ok.

good job it wasn't valium ! glad he is ok, they can always climb and open doors far highrer than you imagine...

No my valium is on top of my kitchen cupboard.

My contraceptives were on a shelving unit next to my bed, in my jewelry box.

He must have aimed for them. I didn't even know he knew about them. He disappreared upstairs briefly while I was cooking tea but I bribed him down with Pippin. Had I KNOWN he was eating medication I'd have called a bleeding ambulance! But as it was, he was still perfectly well when I called the doc at bedtime (having gone upstairs to get nail clippers out of my jewelry box)

When I spoke to him about it, he looked all whimsical and sighed "In my mouf...."

i did not know you had valium anyway, at least he is ok and he told you he had them

It's cool, they are left over from a spasming back last year! Apparently as it is a muscle relaxent first and foremost, they give it for muscle probblems.

'k, DH takes them for his back sometimes too.. makes him snore like a bastard

my friends DS drank almost an entire bottle o f calpol and was absolutely fine apart from being hugely and very pinkly sick in A&E
